Patient's question:
Boy baby, just turned one month old. At first, when speaking, he felt a sore throat and noticed that his voice was a bit hoarse. At the same time, he had a slight fever and lacked energy. Please ask: How should tonsillitis with crying and fussing in children be treated?Doctor's answer:
It is recommended that parents consult a doctor to choose appropriate antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medications for their children to effectively alleviate inflammatory symptoms. While taking medication, local treatments can also be applied, such as rinsing or applying medication directly, which can enhance the therapeutic effect. If the child's main symptom is sore throat, parents may consider giving pain relievers to ease the discomfort. For children with fever, fever-reducing medications can be administered. In severe cases, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. These are common treatment methods. However, if the child's tonsillitis occurs repeatedly, it is advisable to consider surgery at an early stage. During this period, it is important to ensure the child gets adequate rest and consumes more fruits and vegetables.
