How should tonsillitis and sore throat in infants and young children be treated effectively?

Patient's question:

Girl baby, currently 9 years old, just started, says even drinking water feels sore in the throat, noticed it, accompanied by mild cough, and has been slightly feverish all along. Please ask: How should tonsillitis pharyngalgia in infants and young children be treated effectively?

Doctor's answer:

Treating pediatric tonsillitis first, parents can give their child some anti-inflammatory medication. They can also use local rinsing or local sprays. Medication can also be injected into the tonsils for symptomatic treatment, all of which are quite effective. For children with significant sore throat symptoms, pain-relieving medication can be used. If the child still has a fever, appropriate fever reduction measures should be taken. If the temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, it is necessary to seek medical attention promptly. If your child frequently experiences this condition, consider surgical treatment after the condition is under control to prevent recurrence. During treatment, it is important to provide the child with adequate nutrition, with a diet focusing on light foods. Additionally, ensure the child gets plenty of rest and avoids fatigue.
