Patient's question:
Boy, he is already 7 years old. At first, he felt pain in his throat even when drinking water. He noticed that swallowing seemed a bit difficult, and he had been slightly feverish all along. Please ask: How can a child with tonsillitis be treated for discomfort?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 symptoms are primarily sore throat, pain-relieving medication can be considered. If accompanied by low fever, physical cooling methods should be used. If the temperature exceeds 38.5°C, seek medical attention promptly. If the medication is ineffective and the condition recurs frequently, surgical treatment is recommended. 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.
