Patient's question:
My little girl is 1 year old. At first, when she spoke, she felt a sore throat. She noticed it, accompanied by mild coughing. Moreover, she now has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: How should tonsillitis in children with crying and fussing be treated for the best effect?Doctor's answer:
For treatment, symptomatic anti-inflammatory drugs can be administered based on the child's symptoms. For local treatment, laser therapy or medication flushing is recommended. For children with prominent sore throat symptoms, analgesic medications can be used. If the child has persistent fever that doesn't subside, oral fever-reducing medications can be taken. These are all common treatment methods. However, if the child experiences recurrent tonsillitis, it is advisable to consider surgery as early as possible. During treatment, it is important to keep the child warm and avoid further aggravating the symptoms by catching a cold.
