Patient's question:
My little girl, she's 6 years old. At first, she had a slight sore throat, and then I noticed her coughing quite severely. Now, she has a high fever that won't go down. I'm asking: If a child has very painful tonsillitis, how should it be treated?Doctor's answer:
When treating such diseases, children can be given some symptomatic antibiotic medications. If the child's condition is severe, local treatments such as tonsillar crypt irrigation and tonsillar medication injections can also be used. For children with prominent sore throat symptoms, pain-relieving medications can be applied. If the child has persistent fever that does not subside, fever-reducing medications can be taken orally. In addition to these medication treatments, if the child frequently experiences tonsillitis, surgical treatment is also recommended. Finally, it is hoped that parents can take this disease seriously, take their children to the doctor for early treatment, and also pay attention to relevant prevention and health care measures in daily life.
