How should infant and toddler tonsillitis with crying be treated?

Patient's question:

Baby girl, only 6 months old. At first, she said her throat was sore, and it was found that her voice was a bit hoarse when she spoke. Additionally, she had a low fever. Please ask: How should the crying and fussing of infants and young children with tonsillitis be treated.

Doctor's answer:

To achieve better treatment for tonsillitis, you can choose some anti-inflammatory drugs under the guidance of a doctor based on symptoms. In addition to systemic medication, local treatments can also be performed, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar drug injection. If the symptoms are primarily characterized by sore throat, pain-relieving medications can be considered. Additionally, if fever is present, antipyretic drugs can be taken. For high fever, it is still recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible. If there are recurrent inflammation episodes, surgical treatment can be considered. Finally, it is hoped that parents can take this disease seriously, bring their children to the hospital for early diagnosis and treatment, and also pay attention to relevant prevention and health care measures in daily life.
