Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 3 years old, just starting. She says even drinking water feels painful in her throat. It's been discovered that her cough seems quite severe as well, accompanied by low fever. Please ask: How should pharyngitis with low fever in infants and young children be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
If a child gets tonsillitis, first, they can take some symptomatic antibiotic medication. They can also combine some local treatment methods, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or tonsillar injections, which are all good options. If the child's throat pain is severe, appropriate pain relievers can be given. Additionally, if there is a fever, some fever-reducing medication can be taken. For high fever, it is still recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible. If there is a history of recurrent inflammation, surgical treatment can be considered. During daily life, a light diet should be maintained, and a liquid diet should be the main focus during treatment.
