Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 8 years old. At first, she said her throat hurts. It was found that swallowing seems a bit difficult, and she has had a slight fever all along. Please ask: How should tonsillitis with redness and swelling be treated effectively for the child?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs are currently the main methods and medications for the clinical treatment of pediatric tonsillitis. Parents can choose them according to symptoms. While undergoing systemic treatment, local treatment can also be selected to enhance efficacy, including crypt irrigation, direct injection of medication into the tonsils, etc. When necessary, such as when a child has severe sore throat, pain relievers can also be given. If accompanied by low fever, physical cooling methods can be used. If the temperature exceeds 38.5°C, medical attention should be sought promptly. If your child frequently experiences this condition, consider surgical treatment after the condition is controlled to prevent recurrence. Finally, it is hoped that parents can take this disease seriously, bring their children to the hospital for early diagnosis and treatment, and also pay attention to relevant prevention and health care measures in daily life.
