Patient's question:
Boy, he is already 7 years old. At first, he felt pain in his throat even when drinking water. He noticed that his cough was quite severe. Additionally, it seems like his low fever hasn't gone away. Please ask: How should tonsillitis in infants and young children, which is very painful, be treated.Doctor's answer:
When treating such diseases, children can be given some symptomatic antibiotics, and some local treatment methods can also be combined. For example, tonsillar crypt irrigation and tonsillar medication injections are all good options. If the sore throat condition is severe, appropriate analgesics can be given. Children with fever symptoms can take fever-reducing medications. If the condition is severe, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. If there are multiple acute severe episodes or complications have already occurred, tonsillectomy is recommended two weeks after the acute inflammation subsides. During this period, it is important to ensure the child gets adequate rest and consumes more vegetables and fruits.
