Patient's question:
My male baby is 3 years old. At first, he said that even drinking water made his throat hurt. I noticed that his voice was a bit hoarse when he spoke. Additionally, he now has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: How should pediatric tonsillitis with crying and fussiness be treated for the best effect?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotic drugs are commonly used for treating tonsillitis and can be selected accordingly. If the child's condition is severe, local treatments such as tonsillar crypt irrigation and tonsillar injections may also be used. If the child has severe sore throat, pain relievers can be given based on the situation. If the child has persistent fever, antipyretic drugs can be taken orally. In addition to these drug treatments, if the child frequently experiences tonsillitis, surgical treatment is also recommended. At the same time, it is important to arrange a reasonable diet and sleep schedule for the child to help the disease recover as soon as possible.
