Patient's question:
Boy baby, just turned 3 months old. At first, he had a slightly sore throat, and then discovered it was accompanied by mild coughing. Now, he has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: If the child has very painful tonsillitis, how should it be treated for the best effect?Doctor's answer:
It is recommended that parents consult a doctor to choose appropriate antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medications for their children, which can effectively alleviate inflammatory symptoms. Additionally, local treatments such as tonsillar crypt irrigation, intratonsillar medication injection, and laser therapy can be performed. Pain relievers can also be given to children, especially when throat pain is severe, to help relieve discomfort. Some children may also experience fever, in which case oral fever-reducing medications can be administered. If symptoms do not improve, medical attention is necessary. If your child frequently experiences such conditions, surgical treatment can be considered after the condition is under control to prevent recurrence. During treatment, it is important to provide the child with adequate nutrition, focusing on a light diet, and ensure they get plenty of rest to avoid fatigue.
