Patient's question:
Boy, 8 years old, has started elementary school. At first, he said it hurts when he swallows, and it was noticed that his voice is a bit hoarse when he speaks. Now, he has high fever that won't go down. Question: How should a child with tonsillitis and crying be treated?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs are currently the main methods and medications for the clinical treatment of pediatric tonsillitis. Parents can choose them based on symptoms. Additionally, local treatments can be performed, including tonsillar crypt irrigation, intratonsillar drug injection, laser therapy, etc. If a child's sore throat is severe, it is recommended to provide pain relievers based on the situation. Children with fever symptoms can take fever-reducing medications. In severe cases, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. If your child frequently experiences this condition, consider surgical treatment after the condition is under control to prevent recurrence. Finally, it is hoped that parents can take this disease seriously, take their children to the doctor for early diagnosis and treatment, and also pay attention to relevant prevention and health care measures in daily life.
