Patient's question:
Boy baby, just turned 2 months old. At first, he had a slightly sore throat, and then discovered it was accompanied by mild coughing, and he also had a slight fever and wasn't very energetic. Please ask: How should tonsillitis be treated when the child is feeling uncomfortable?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotic drugs are commonly used for treating tonsillitis and can be selected as needed. If the child's condition is severe, local treatments such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or tonsillar injections may also be used. For sore throat, pain relievers can be given to the child. If the child still has a fever, it should be managed appropriately. If the temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, immediate medical attention is required. Tonsillitis is prone to recurrence, and if similar symptoms persist, surgery may be considered after the inflammation is controlled. Finally, parents should take this disease seriously, seek medical treatment for their children as soon as possible, and also pay attention to relevant prevention and health care measures.
