Patient's question:
Boy baby, just turned 2 months old, just starting, says his throat hurts even when drinking water, found that swallowing seems a bit difficult, and it seems like the low fever hasn't gone away. Please ask: How should infant tonsillitis be treated for the best effect when it's uncomfortable?Doctor's answer:
If a child gets tonsillitis, symptomatic anti-inflammatory drugs can be given. While taking medication, some local treatments can also be performed, such as rinsing or applying medication directly, which can enhance the therapeutic effect. If the sore throat is severe, appropriate analgesics can be given. If the child still has a slight fever, fever-reducing measures should be taken. If the temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, it is necessary to seek medical attention promptly. In addition to the above drug treatments, if the child frequently experiences tonsillitis, surgical treatment is also recommended. During the treatment period, attention should be paid to maintaining dietary hygiene and ensuring sufficient rest time.
