Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 3 years old, just started, saying it hurts when swallowing, found, coughing is quite severe, and, a bit feverish and lacking energy, please ask: How to treat tonsillitis effectively when the child is crying.Doctor's answer:
Antibiotic drugs are commonly used for treating tonsillitis and can be selected as needed. Additionally, local treatments can be performed, including tonsillar crypt irrigation, intratonsillar drug injection, laser therapy, etc. If the child primarily exhibits symptoms of sore throat, it is recommended that parents consider administering pain relievers to alleviate the discomfort. 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. Tonsillitis is characterized by recurrent episodes. If similar symptoms persist, surgery may be considered after the inflammation is controlled. During this period, it is important to ensure the child gets adequate rest and consumes more vegetables and fruits.
