Patient's question:
My child is a boy, 4 years old. At first, he felt a sore throat when speaking and noticed that his voice was a bit hoarse. Also, it seems like he has had a low fever that hasn't gone away. Please ask: How can we effectively treat a child's tonsillitis when they are crying?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotic drugs are commonly used for treating tonsillitis and can be selected as needed. Additionally, topical medication sprays or laser therapy can also be administered. If a child's sore throat symptoms are particularly severe, it is recommended to use some pain relievers to alleviate the symptoms. Moreover, if fever is present, antipyretic drugs can be taken. For high fever, it is still advisable to seek medical attention promptly. If your child frequently experiences this condition, surgical treatment can be considered after the condition is under control to prevent recurrence. Pay attention to a light diet during daily life, and a liquid diet should be primarily followed during treatment.
