Patient's question:
Boy baby, just turned 9 months old. At first, when speaking, he felt a sore throat. It was found that his cough was quite severe, and it seemed like a low fever had not subsided. Please ask: If the child's tonsils are inflamed and crying, how should the treatment be done to be effective.Doctor's answer:
Currently, in clinical practice, the treatment of pediatric tonsillitis primarily relies on antibiotics. Sensitive medications can be selected based on bacterial culture, which has shown good efficacy. Local treatments can also be used, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar medication. For children with significant sore throat symptoms, pain-relieving medications can be administered. If the child has a fever, antipyretic drugs can be taken. In severe cases, prompt medical attention should be sought. Tonsillitis is characterized by recurrent episodes. If similar symptoms persist, surgery may be considered after the inflammation is controlled. At the same time, it is important to arrange a reasonable diet and sleep routine for the child to help the disease recover as soon as possible.
