Patient's question:
My child is a boy, 8 years old. At first, he said it hurt when he swallowed, and I noticed that his cough was quite severe. Also, it seems like his low fever hasn't gone away. Please ask: How should the treatment be for infant and toddler tonsillitis when they are crying?Doctor's answer:
In terms of treatment, it is generally recommended to follow the doctor's advice and give the child some anti-inflammatory medication. While taking the medication, local treatments can also be performed, such as rinsing or applying medication directly, which can enhance the therapeutic effect. In cases of sore throat, pain relievers can also be given to the child. If the child has persistent fever that does not subside, fever-reducing medication can be administered orally. These are all common treatment methods. However, if the child's tonsillitis occurs repeatedly, it is advisable to consider surgery as early as possible. During this period, it is important to ensure the child gets adequate rest and consumes more fruits and vegetables.
