Patient's question:
Boy, just turned 8 months old. At first, he said his throat hurt even when drinking water, and he noticed that swallowing seemed a bit difficult. Also, he had a slight fever and wasn't very energetic. Please ask: If the child has tonsillitis and sore throat, how should it be treated for the best effect.Doctor's answer:
In terms of treatment, it is generally recommended to follow the doctor's advice and give the child some anti-inflammatory medication. Additionally, topical medication sprays or laser therapy can be applied. If the sore throat is severe, appropriate pain relievers can be given. If the child still has a fever, it should be managed accordingly, and if the temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, prompt medical attention is necessary. If the medication is ineffective and the condition recurs frequently, surgical treatment is recommended. After the condition improves, it is advisable to encourage the child to engage in appropriate exercise to boost immunity and prevent recurrence.
