How should a child with sore tonsils be treated for the best effect?

Patient's question:

Boy, just turned 5 months old, just started, a little sore in the throat, found that swallowing seems a bit difficult, and also accompanied by low fever. Please ask: How should I treat tonsillitis in children effectively if it's very painful?

Doctor's answer:

If a child gets tonsillitis, symptomatic anti-inflammatory drugs can be given, local rinsing or local spraying can also be used, and symptomatic drugs can also be injected into the tonsils. The efficacy is quite good. In case of sore throat, pain relievers can also be given to the child. If the child has been feverish for a long time, parents can also give fever-reducing medication, or take the child to the hospital immediately. If your child frequently experiences this condition, surgical treatment can be considered after the condition is controlled to prevent recurrence. While treating, it's also important to arrange a light diet for the child, enhance nutritional supplementation, and help with early recovery.
