Patient's question:
Female baby, only 4 months old, just starting out. She says even drinking water feels painful in her throat. She noticed that her cough seems to be getting worse as well. At the same time, she now has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: How can you effectively treat infant tonsillitis, which is very painful?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 undergoing systemic treatment, local treatment can also be chosen to enhance the efficacy. Methods include crypt irrigation, direct injection of medication into the tonsils, etc. If the child's throat pain is severe, appropriate pain-relieving medication can be given. If the child has persistent fever that does not subside, oral fever-reducing medication can be administered. These methods are commonly used for treating tonsillitis at present. Additionally, surgery is also a feasible option, particularly suitable for children who experience recurrent episodes. During the treatment period, it is important to maintain dietary hygiene and ensure adequate rest.
