Patient's question:
My little girl is 2 years old. At first, she had a slight sore throat, and I noticed that swallowing seemed a bit difficult. She also had a low fever. I'm asking: How should I treat her tonsillitis pain?Doctor's answer:
If a child gets tonsillitis, first, they can use some symptomatic antibiotic medication. For local treatment, it is recommended to choose laser therapy or medication rinsing. If the sore throat is severe, appropriate pain relievers can be given. For those with low-grade fever, physical cooling methods can be used. If the temperature exceeds 38.5°C, medical attention should be sought promptly. These are all common treatment methods. However, if the child's tonsillitis occurs repeatedly, it is advisable to consider early surgery. At the same time, it is also important to arrange a reasonable diet and sleep routine for the child to help the disease recover as soon as possible.
