Patient's question:
My male baby is 1 year old. At first, he had a slightly sore throat, and I noticed it accompanied by mild coughing, as well as low fever. Please ask: If the child has tonsillitis and feels uncomfortable, how should it be treated well?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 according to symptoms. Additionally, local treatments can be performed, including tonsillar crypt irrigation, intratonsillar drug injection, laser therapy, etc. For sore throat, pain relievers can also be given to children. If the child still has a fever, it should be managed appropriately. If the temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, immediate medical attention is necessary. The above methods are commonly used for treating tonsillitis at present. Additionally, surgery is also a feasible option, suitable for children with recurrent episodes. At the same time, it is also important to arrange a reasonable diet and sleep routine for the child to help the disease recover as soon as possible.
