Patient's question:
Boy, he is already 6 years old. At first, he felt a sore throat when speaking, noticed it, and had severe coughing. At the same time, he now has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: How should tonsillitis pain in infants and young children be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
To achieve better treatment for tonsillitis, you can choose some anti-inflammatory drugs under the guidance of a doctor. While undergoing systemic treatment, you can also opt for local treatments to enhance efficacy. Methods include crypt irrigation, direct injection of medication into the tonsils, etc. If the sore throat is particularly severe, appropriate pain relievers can be administered. If there is a fever, the method of cooling down should be selected based on the body temperature. Below 38.5 degrees Celsius, physical cooling methods can be used, while above 38.5 degrees Celsius, oral fever-reducing medication can be taken. These are all commonly used treatment methods. However, if the child's tonsillitis occurs repeatedly, it is recommended to consider surgery as early as possible. During daily life, maintain a light diet, and during the treatment period, focus on a liquid diet.
