Patient's question:
Girl baby, only 7 months old, just started, said it hurts when swallowing things, noticed that swallowing seems a bit difficult. Also, she now has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: How should one treat tonsillitis and sore throat if the child shows symptoms?Doctor's answer:
For treatment, symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication can be given based on the child's symptoms. For local treatment, laser therapy or medication flushing is recommended. If the child's sore throat symptoms are particularly severe, pain-relieving medication is advised to alleviate the symptoms. If the child also has a fever, fever-reducing medication can be taken as needed. However, if the fever persists, it is essential 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 surgery for treatment under medical supervision. After the condition improves, it is recommended to encourage the child to engage in appropriate exercise to boost their immunity and prevent recurrence.
