Patient's question:
My little girl is 7 years old. At first, she felt a sore throat when speaking, and then discovered that her cough seemed to be quite severe as well. Additionally, she had a slight fever and seemed lacking in energy. I would like to ask: How should I treat tonsillitis pain in children?Doctor's answer:
To achieve better treatment for tonsillitis, you can choose some anti-inflammatory drugs under the guidance of a doctor. While undergoing systemic treatment, local treatment can also be selected to enhance efficacy. Methods include crypt irrigation, direct injection of medication into the tonsils, etc. If a child has severe sore throat, it is recommended to give some pain relievers based on the situation. If the child has persistent fever that does not subside, some fever-reducing drugs can be taken orally. If there are multiple acute severe episodes or complications have already developed, it is recommended to perform a tonsillectomy two weeks after the acute inflammation subsides. Pay attention to a light diet during daily life, and focus on a liquid diet during treatment.
