How should tonsillitis with crying in children be treated?

Patient's question:

My little girl, who is 2 years old, initially said she had pain when swallowing. It was discovered that her cough seemed quite severe as well. Additionally, she had a slight fever and seemed lacking in energy. Please advise: How should I treat her if she develops tonsillitis and starts crying?

Doctor's answer:

When it comes to treatment, can be administered based on the child's symptoms. Local treatments can also be performed, including tonsillar crypt irrigation, medication injection into the tonsils, laser therapy, etc. If necessary, such as when the child's sore throat is particularly severe, pain relievers can be given. Some children may also have a fever, in which case oral antipyretics can be administered. If the symptoms do not improve, medical attention must be sought. If the medication is ineffective and the condition recurs frequently, surgical treatment is recommended. During the treatment period, it is important to maintain dietary hygiene and ensure adequate rest.
