Patient's question:
My little girl is 4 years old. At first, she said that even drinking water with her throat felt painful. She also had mild coughing and had been slightly feverish. Please ask: How should tonsillitis in children be treated?Doctor's answer:
When treating such diseases, children can be given some symptomatic antibiotics, and local treatment methods can also be combined. For example, tonsillar crypt irrigation and tonsillar medication injections are all good options. For children with significant sore throat symptoms, pain-relieving medication can be used. If the child has persistent fever that doesn't subside, antipyretic medication can be taken orally. In cases of recurrent inflammation, surgical treatment can be considered. Parents should also pay attention to keeping their children warm to avoid catching colds and triggering recurrent tonsillitis.
