Patient's question:
My son is 7 years old. At first, he said his throat hurts, and I noticed that swallowing seems a bit difficult. Moreover, he now has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: How should I treat my child's tonsillitis effectively when he cries and complains?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs can be appropriately administered. Additionally, topical medication sprays or laser treatment can be used. If the symptoms are primarily characterized by sore throat, pain-relieving medications can be considered. If the child still has a fever, fever-reducing measures should be taken. If the temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, it is necessary to seek medical attention promptly. In addition to the above drug treatments, if the child frequently experiences tonsillitis, surgical treatment may also be recommended. During the treatment period, it is important to maintain dietary hygiene and ensure adequate rest.
