Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 8 years old, just started, said her throat hurts, found that swallowing seems a bit difficult, and she has a slight fever and no energy. Please ask: How should tonsillitis with redness and swelling be treated in children?Doctor's answer:
When treating such diseases, children can be given some symptomatic antibiotic medications. If the child's condition is severe, local treatments such as tonsillar crypt irrigation and tonsillar medication injections can also be used. If the child's main symptom is sore throat, it is recommended that parents consider giving some pain relievers to alleviate the discomfort. If the child has a persistent fever, parents can also use fever-reducing medications or take the child to the hospital immediately. These are all common treatment methods. However, if the child's tonsillitis occurs repeatedly, it is recommended to consider surgery as early as possible. After the condition improves, it is advisable to encourage the child to engage in appropriate exercise to boost their immunity and prevent recurrence.
