Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 7 years old. At first, she said it hurts when she swallows things. She noticed that her voice is a bit hoarse when she speaks, and she has had a slight fever all along. Please ask: How should the child's tonsillitis be treated when they cry and fuss?Doctor's answer:
To achieve better treatment for tonsillitis, you can choose some anti-inflammatory medications under the guidance of a doctor, and you can also combine some local treatment methods, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or tonsillar injections, which are all quite effective. When necessary, such as when a child has severe sore throat, pain relievers can also be given. If there is a fever, the method of cooling down should be chosen based on the temperature: physical cooling is suitable for temperatures below 38.5°C, while oral fever-reducing medication can be used for temperatures above 38.5°C. If your child frequently experiences this condition, consider surgical treatment after the condition is under control to prevent recurrence. During treatment, focus on a light diet, and primarily consume liquid foods.
