Patient's question:
Boy, 12 years old, in primary school. At first, he felt a sore throat when speaking, and noticed that his voice was a bit hoarse when talking. Also, it seemed like a low fever that never went away. Please ask: How to treat crying and fussing in infants and young children with tonsillitis?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotic drugs are commonly used for treating tonsillitis. They can be selected as needed. Local medications can also be used, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar drug injection. When necessary, such as when a child has severe sore throat, pain relievers can be given. If accompanied by low fever, physical cooling methods can be used. If the temperature exceeds 38.5°C, medical attention should be sought promptly. These are all common treatment methods. However, if a child's tonsillitis occurs repeatedly, it is recommended to consider surgery as early as possible. At the same time, it is also important to arrange a reasonable diet and sleep schedule for the child to help the disease recover more quickly.
