Patient's question:
My son is 5 years old. At first, he said his throat hurts. Later, we found that his cough is quite severe, and it seems like his low fever hasn't gone away. Please ask: How should we treat his tonsillitis if he is feeling uncomfortable?Doctor's answer:
In terms of treatment, it is generally recommended to follow the doctor's advice and give the child some anti-inflammatory medication. In addition to systemic medication, local treatments can also be performed, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar medication injection. If the child's sore throat is severe, it is advisable to provide pain relievers based on the situation. If the child has persistent fever that does not subside, some fever-reducing medication can be taken orally. If the medication is not effective and the condition recurs frequently, surgical treatment is recommended. Pay attention to a light diet during daily life, and focus on a liquid diet during the treatment period.
