Patient's question:
Boy baby, just turned 3 months old, just started, said swallowing hurts, noticed that, cough seems to be quite severe as well, and has had a slight fever for a while. Please ask: How is it best to treat a baby's tonsillitis crying and fussing?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotic drugs are commonly used for treating tonsillitis and can be selected as needed. Local medication can also be used, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar injection of drugs. Pain relievers can be given to children based on their condition, especially when the throat pain is severe, to help alleviate discomfort. If the child has a fever, fever-reducing medications can be taken. In severe cases, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. If there are multiple acute severe episodes or complications have already developed, tonsillectomy is recommended two weeks after the acute inflammation subsides. Parents should also pay attention to keeping their children warm to prevent colds that could trigger recurrent tonsillitis.
