Patient's question:
Boy, he is already 6 years old. At first, he said his throat hurts. He noticed that swallowing seems a bit difficult. Additionally, he now has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: How can tonsillitis pain in children be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
If a child gets tonsillitis, symptomatic treatment with anti-inflammatory drugs can be given. For local treatment, laser therapy or medicinal rinsing is recommended. Pain relievers can also be administered based on the child's condition, especially when the sore throat is severe, to help alleviate the pain. If the child has a fever, fever-reducing medications can be taken. In severe cases, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. In addition to these drug treatments, if the child frequently experiences tonsillitis, surgical treatment may also be recommended. During treatment, a light diet should be maintained, and a liquid diet is preferred.
