How to treat infant and toddler tonsillitis pain effectively

Patient's question:

Boy, 7 years old, has started primary school. At first, he said his throat hurts. It was found that his cough is quite severe, and at the same time, his high fever has not subsided yet. Please ask: How to treat tonsillitis in infants and young children for the best effect.

Doctor's answer:

If a child gets tonsillitis, first, they can take some symptomatic antibiotics. Local flushing or topical sprays can also be used. Medications can also be injected into the tonsils, all of which have good effects. For children with severe sore throat symptoms, pain-relieving medication can be used. If the child keeps having a fever, parents can also give them fever-reducing medication or take them to the hospital immediately. If the medication is not effective and the condition recurs frequently, surgical treatment is recommended. During this period, it is important to ensure the child gets adequate rest and eats more fruits and vegetables.
