Patient's question:
My little girl is 3 years old. At first, she said that even drinking water felt painful in her throat. She also seemed to have more severe coughing. Additionally, she now has a high fever that won't go down. Please ask: How can I treat her tonsillitis effectively when she is feeling uncomfortable?Doctor's answer:
When treating such diseases, children can be given some symptomatic antibiotics. While taking the medication, local treatments can also be performed, such as rinsing or applying medication directly, which can enhance the therapeutic effect. When necessary, such as when a child has severe sore throat, pain relievers can also be given. Some children may also have a fever, in which case oral antipyretics can be administered. If the symptoms do not improve, medical attention must be sought. For cases with recurrent inflammation, surgical treatment may be considered. During treatment, it is also important to provide the child with a light diet and ensure adequate nutritional supplementation to help them recover as soon as possible.
