Patient's question:
Boy, just turned 9 months old. At first, when speaking, he felt a sore throat. It was found that his cough seemed to be more severe as well. Meanwhile, his high fever hasn't subsided yet. Please ask: How should tonsillitis and sore throat be treated in children?Doctor's answer:
Currently, in clinical treatment of pediatric tonsillitis, antibiotics are primarily used. Sensitive medications can be selected based on bacterial culture, which has a good effect. Additionally, local treatments can be performed, including tonsillar crypt irrigation, intratonsillar drug injection, laser therapy, etc. If a child's sore throat symptoms are particularly severe, it is recommended to use some analgesics to relieve the symptoms. Additionally, if fever is present, antipyretic drugs can be taken. For high fever, it is still advisable to seek medical attention as soon as possible. If a child frequently experiences tonsillitis, it is recommended to consider surgery at an early stage. Finally, it is hoped that parents can pay attention to this disease and take their children to seek medical treatment as soon as possible. Additionally, proper prevention and health care measures should be taken in daily life.
