Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 7 years old. At first, she had a slight sore throat. She noticed that her voice was a bit hoarse when she spoke, and she also had a low fever. Please ask: How should infant tonsillitis be treated when it's uncomfortable?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotic drugs are commonly used for treating tonsillitis and can be selected as needed. For local treatment, laser therapy or medication rinsing is recommended. In cases of sore throat, children can also be given pain relievers. If the child still has a fever, they can be given fever-reducing medication. However, if the fever persists, it is essential to seek medical attention promptly. If the child frequently experiences tonsillitis, it is advisable to consider surgery early on. Parents should also ensure their children stay warm to prevent colds that could trigger recurrent tonsillitis.
