Patient's question:
My child is a boy, 9 years old. At first, he said he had a sore throat. It was discovered that his cough was quite severe and accompanied by low fever. Please ask: How should I treat my child's tonsillitis if he's crying?Doctor's answer:
For treatment, first, symptomatic anti-inflammatory drugs can be given based on the child's symptoms, or local medications can be used, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar medication. If the child has severe sore throat, pain relievers can be given according to the situation. If the child has persistent fever that does not subside, some fever-reducing drugs can be taken orally. If the drug efficacy is poor and it recurs frequently, surgical treatment is recommended. During this period, it is important to ensure the child gets adequate rest and eats more vegetables and fruits.
