Patient's question:
My child is a boy, 8 years old. At first, he said his throat hurts, and it was found that his cough seems to be quite severe as well. At the same time, he has a low fever. Please ask: How should I treat a child with tonsillitis who is crying and fussing?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotic drugs are commonly used for treating tonsillitis and can be selected as needed. In addition to systemic medication, local treatments can also be performed, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar drug injection. If the child's main symptom is sore throat, it is recommended that parents consider giving pain relievers to alleviate the discomfort. If the child has persistent fever that does not subside, oral antipyretics can be taken. In addition to these drug treatment methods, if the child frequently experiences recurrent inflammation, parents can consult a doctor to consider surgical treatment. At the same time, it is also important to arrange a reasonable diet and sleep routine for the child to help the disease recover as soon as possible.
