Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 5 years old, just started, saying her throat hurts, found that her voice is a bit hoarse when speaking, and now she has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: How is it effective to treat tonsillitis in infants and young children?Doctor's answer:
For treatment, you can first administer symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication based on the child's symptoms. You can also combine it with local treatment methods, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or tonsillar injections, which are both effective. If necessary, such as when the child has severe sore throat, pain relievers can also be given. Additionally, if the child has a fever, antipyretic medication can be taken. For high fever, it is still recommended to seek medical attention promptly. If your child frequently experiences this condition, consider surgical treatment after the condition is under control to prevent recurrence. Parents should also pay attention to keeping their child warm to avoid catching a cold and triggering further tonsillar inflammation.
