Patient's question:
Baby girl, only one month old. At first, she said her throat hurts. I noticed that her voice is a bit hoarse when she speaks, and she also has a low fever. Please ask: If a child's tonsillitis is very painful, how should it be diagnosed and treated.Doctor's answer:
Currently, in clinical treatment of pediatric tonsillitis, antibiotics are primarily used. Sensitive medications can be selected based on bacterial culture, which is quite effective. Local treatment methods can also be combined, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar medication, which are both good options. Pain relievers can be given to children depending on their condition, especially when throat pain is severe, to help alleviate discomfort. If the child has persistent fever that does not subside, oral antipyretics can be administered. Tonsillitis is characterized by recurrent episodes. If similar cases occur, surgery can be considered after the inflammation is controlled. Finally, it is hoped that parents can take this disease seriously, take their children to the hospital for early medical treatment, and also pay attention to relevant prevention and health care measures in daily life.
