Patient's question:
Female baby, currently 3 years old, just started, a little sore throat, noticed, accompanied by mild cough, and now has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: How to treat tonsillitis pharyngalgia in infants and young children.Doctor's answer:
Currently, in clinical treatment of pediatric tonsillitis, antibiotics are primarily used. Sensitive medications can be selected based on bacterial culture, which has a good effect. Local treatments can also be applied, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar medication injections. If a child has severe sore throat, pain relievers can be given according to the situation. Persistent fever should be treated with antipyretics, and physical cooling methods can be used if the temperature is below 38.5°C. Tonsillitis is characterized by recurrent episodes. If similar conditions persist, surgery can be considered after the inflammation is controlled. During this period, it is important to ensure the child gets adequate rest and consumes more vegetables and fruits.
