Patient's question:
Female baby, only 9 months old, just starting out. When she talks, she feels a sore throat, and it seems she has difficulty swallowing. Additionally, she has been slightly feverish for a while. Please ask: How can we effectively treat her tonsillitis if she is crying and agitated?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotic drugs are commonly used for treating tonsillitis and can be selected accordingly. If the child's condition is severe, local treatments such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or tonsillar injections may also be used. For sore throat, pain relievers can be given to the child. If there is a fever, the method of fever reduction should be chosen based on the temperature. Below 38.5°C, physical cooling methods can be used, while above 38.5°C, oral antipyretics should be administered. If your child frequently experiences this condition, surgical treatment can be considered after the condition is controlled to prevent recurrence. Finally, it is hoped that parents can take this disease seriously, bring their children to the doctor for early treatment, and also pay attention to relevant prevention and health care measures in daily life.
