Patient's question:
Boy, he is already 4 years old. At first, he said that even drinking water with his throat felt painful. He also noticed that his cough seemed quite severe. Additionally, he has had a slight fever for a while. Please ask: How should tonsillitis and sore throat in the child be treated for the best effect?Doctor's answer:
The treatment of pediatric tonsillitis can involve selecting sensitive antibiotics based on bacterial culture. For local treatment, laser therapy or medicinal rinsing is recommended. In cases of sore throat, pain relievers can be given to children. If the child still has a fever, appropriate fever reduction measures should be taken. If the temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, immediate medical attention is necessary. In addition to these medication-based treatments, if the child frequently experiences recurrent inflammation, parents may consider surgical treatment under the guidance of a doctor. During the treatment period, it is important to maintain dietary hygiene and ensure sufficient rest.
