How should a child with tonsillitis and crying be treated?

Patient's question:

Female baby, only 8 months old. At first, she said her throat hurts. Upon observation, it is accompanied by mild coughing. At the same time, it seems like a low fever hasn't gone away. Please ask: How should one treat a child's tonsillitis when they are crying and fussing?

Doctor's answer:

For treatment, first, symptomatic anti-inflammatory drugs can be given based on the child's symptoms. For local treatment, laser therapy or medication flushing is recommended. If the child has severe sore throat, pain relievers can be given based on the situation. Some children may also have a fever, in which case oral fever-reducing medication can be given. If the condition does not improve, it is essential to seek medical attention. If the medication is ineffective and the condition recurs frequently, surgical treatment is recommended. Finally, it is hoped that parents can take this disease seriously, take the child to seek medical treatment as soon as possible, and also pay attention to relevant prevention and health care measures in daily life.
