Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 9 years old, just starting, feels sore throat when speaking, found that cough seems to be more severe, and accompanied by low fever. Please ask: How should the treatment be carried out if the child has tonsillitis pain?Doctor's answer:
When it comes to treatment, symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication can be administered based on the child's symptoms. For local treatment, laser therapy or medication irrigation is recommended. In cases of sore throat, pain relievers can also be given to the child. If there is a fever, the method of cooling should be chosen based on the temperature. Below 38.5°C, physical cooling methods can be used, while above 38.5°C, oral fever-reducing medication is recommended. These methods are commonly used for treating tonsillitis at present. Additionally, surgery is also a feasible option, particularly for children who experience recurrent episodes. Lastly, it is important for parents to take this disease seriously, seek medical treatment for their children as soon as possible, and also pay attention to relevant prevention and health care measures in daily life.
