Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 2 years old, just starting, feels sore throat when speaking, found that swallowing seems a bit difficult, and a bit feverish with no energy. Please ask: How to treat tonsillitis and sore throat in children.Doctor's answer:
Generally speaking, if it is pediatric tonsillitis, symptomatic treatment with antibiotics for the child can be quite effective. While taking medication, local treatments can also be applied, such as rinsing or direct medication, which can enhance the therapeutic effect. If the sore throat is particularly severe, appropriate pain relievers can be given. If the child also has a fever, antipyretics can be taken as needed. However, if the fever persists, it is essential to seek medical attention promptly.In addition to these drug treatments, if the child frequently experiences recurrent tonsillitis, surgical treatment may also be recommended. Parents should also pay attention to keeping the child warm to prevent colds and further inflammation of the tonsils.
