Patient's question:
My child is a boy, 3 years old. At first, he said that even drinking water with his throat felt painful. I noticed that swallowing seemed a bit difficult, and he also had a low fever. Please ask: How should I treat his tonsillitis if he is crying?Doctor's answer:
When treating such diseases, children can be given some symptomatic antibiotic medications. Additionally, topical medication sprays or laser therapy can be applied. If the child's throat pain is severe, appropriate analgesics can be given. Persistent fever should be treated with antipyretics, and physical cooling methods can be used if the temperature is below 38.5 degrees Celsius. If the medication is ineffective and the condition recurs frequently, surgical treatment is recommended. At the same time, it is important to arrange a reasonable diet and sleep schedule for the child to help them recover as soon as possible.
