Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 9 years old. At first, she had a slight sore throat, noticed it, and her cough was quite severe. Additionally, she had a low fever. Please ask: How should I treat a child with tonsillitis who is crying and restless?Doctor's answer:
For treatment, symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication can be given based on the child's symptoms. If the child's condition is severe, local treatments such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or tonsillar injections may also be used. If the child primarily exhibits sore throat symptoms, parents are advised to consider giving pain relievers to alleviate discomfort. If the child has persistent fever, antipyretic medication can be administered, or the child should be taken to the hospital immediately. In cases of recurrent inflammation, surgical intervention may be considered. During treatment, it is important to maintain dietary hygiene and ensure adequate rest.
