Patient's question:
Boy, already 4 years old. At first, he felt sore when saying "gargle water," noticed that swallowing seemed a bit difficult, and also had low fever. Please ask: How should tonsillitis in children, who cry and fuss, be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
To achieve better treatment for tonsillitis, you can choose some anti-inflammatory medications under the guidance of a doctor. While taking medication, you can also perform some local treatments, such as rinsing or applying medication directly, to enhance the therapeutic effect. When necessary, such as when a child has severe sore throat, pain relievers can also be given. If the child has persistent fever, antipyretic drugs should be used in a timely manner. Physical cooling methods can be applied if the temperature is below 38.5 degrees Celsius. In addition to these medication-based treatments, if a child frequently experiences inflammation, parents can consult a doctor and consider surgical treatment under medical supervision. After the condition improves, it is recommended to encourage the child to engage in appropriate exercise to boost immunity and prevent recurrence.
