Patient's question:
Boy, already 3 years old. At first, he said his throat hurts. It was found that his voice is a bit hoarse when speaking, accompanied by low fever. Please ask: How should the treatment be if the child has tonsillitis pain.Doctor's answer:
Antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs are currently the main methods and medications for clinical treatment of pediatric tonsillitis. Parents can choose them according to symptoms. While taking medication, local treatments such as rinsing or direct application can also be performed to enhance efficacy. If the symptoms are primarily sore throat, pain-relieving medications can be considered. Additionally, if fever is present, fever-reducing drugs can be taken. For high fever, it is still recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible. If there are multiple acute severe episodes or complications have already developed, tonsillectomy is recommended two weeks after the acute inflammation subsides. During daily life, a light diet should be maintained, and a liquid diet is preferred during treatment.
