Patient's question:
Baby girl, currently 1 year old. At first, when speaking, she felt a sore throat, noticed that her cough seemed to be more severe as well, and she also had a low fever. Please ask: How should one treat a child with painful tonsillitis?Doctor's answer:
If a child gets tonsillitis, symptomatic anti-inflammatory drugs can be given. If the child's condition is severe, some local treatments can be combined, including tonsillar crypt irrigation, tonsillar injections, etc. If the child has a sore throat, appropriate pain-relieving medication can be given. If the child has a persistent fever, parents can also use fever-reducing medication or take the child to the hospital immediately. If there is a history of recurrent inflammation, surgical treatment can be considered. After the condition improves, it is recommended to let the child engage in appropriate exercise to boost immunity and prevent recurrence.
