Patient's question:
My son is 3 years old. At first, he said his throat hurts. I noticed that his cough seems to be getting worse as well. Now, he has a high fever that won't go down. I'm asking: How can I effectively treat my child's tonsillitis pain?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. For local treatment, laser therapy or medication rinsing is recommended. If the child's throat pain is severe, appropriate pain-relieving medication can be given. If the child has persistent fever that does not subside, oral fever-reducing medication can be administered. These methods are commonly used for treating tonsillitis at present. Additionally, surgery is also a viable option, particularly for children who experience recurrent episodes. While undergoing treatment, it is also important to arrange a light diet for the child and enhance nutritional supplementation to help them recover as soon as possible.
