Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 5 years old, just starting. She says even drinking water feels painful in her throat, and she has noticed that swallowing seems a bit difficult. Also, it seems like her low-grade fever hasn't gone away. Please ask: How should tonsillitis be treated when it's very painful for children?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs can be appropriately administered. For local treatment, laser therapy or medication flushing is recommended. If the child's sore throat is severe, pain relievers can be given based on the situation. Children with fever symptoms can take fever-reducing medications. In severe cases, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. In addition to these medication-based treatments, if the child frequently experiences inflammation, parents can consult a doctor and consider surgical treatment under medical supervision. While undergoing treatment, it is also important to provide the child with a light diet and enhance nutritional supplementation to aid in early recovery.
