Patient's question:
Girl baby, only one month old, just starting, saying her throat hurts, found that swallowing seems a bit difficult, and at the same time, it seems like a low fever hasn't gone away. Please ask: If the child has tonsillitis and feels uncomfortable, how should it be treated?Doctor's answer:
If a child gets tonsillitis, symptomatic anti-inflammatory drugs can be given. If the child's condition is severe, some local treatments can also be combined, including tonsillar crypt irrigation, tonsillar medication injections, etc. If the child's main symptom is sore throat, it is recommended that parents can administer pain relievers as needed to alleviate the discomfort. Additionally, if there is a fever, some fever-reducing drugs can be taken. For high fever, it is still recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible. Tonsillitis is characterized by recurrent episodes. If similar symptoms persist, surgery can be considered after the inflammation is controlled. While undergoing treatment, it is also important to arrange a light diet for the child, enhance nutritional supplementation, and help them recover as soon as possible.
