Patient's question:
Boy baby, just turned 4 months old, just started, a little sore in the throat, found that swallowing seems a bit difficult, also, the high fever hasn't subsided yet. Please ask: If children's tonsillitis is very painful, how should it be treated well.Doctor's answer:
Generally speaking, if it is pediatric tonsillitis, symptomatic treatment with antibiotics for the child can be quite effective. While undergoing systemic treatment, local treatment can also be chosen to enhance the therapeutic effect. Methods include crypt irrigation, direct injection of medication into the tonsils, etc. If the child's sore throat is particularly severe, it is recommended to provide pain relievers based on the situation. Additionally, if fever is present, antipyretic drugs can be taken. In cases of high fever, it is still advisable to seek medical attention promptly. The above are common treatment methods. However, if the child's tonsillitis occurs repeatedly, it is recommended to consider surgery as early as possible. Parents should also pay attention to keeping the child warm to prevent catching a cold and triggering a recurrence of tonsillitis.
