Patient's question:
Boy, already 1 year old. At first, when speaking, he felt a sore throat, noticed it, and had severe coughing. Additionally, he had been slightly feverish. Please ask: How should I treat a child with tonsillitis who is crying and restless?Doctor's answer:
In terms of treatment, it is generally recommended to follow the doctor's advice and give the child some anti-inflammatory medication. It can also be combined with some local treatment methods, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or tonsillar injections, which are all good options. If the sore throat is severe, appropriate pain relievers can be given. If the child still has a fever, it should be managed accordingly, and if the temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, immediate medical attention is necessary. For cases with recurrent inflammation, surgical treatment can be considered. Parents should also pay attention to keeping the child warm to prevent catching a cold and triggering another episode of tonsillitis.
