The child's tonsillitis is uncomfortable, how to diagnose and treat

Patient's question:

Baby girl, only 3 months old. At first, she had a slightly sore throat and noticed that swallowing seemed a bit difficult. Additionally, she had a low fever. Please ask: How should I treat her tonsillitis if she is uncomfortable?

Doctor's answer:

If a child gets tonsillitis, symptomatic anti-inflammatory drugs can be given, or local rinsing or local spraying can be used. Medications can also be injected into the tonsils for symptomatic treatment, all of which have good efficacy. If the symptoms are primarily sore throat, pain-relieving medications can be considered. If the child has persistent fever that doesn't subside, some fever-reducing drugs can be taken orally.
In addition to these medication treatments, if the child frequently experiences inflammation, parents can choose surgery for treatment under a doctor's guidance. After the condition improves, it is recommended to encourage the child to engage in appropriate exercise to boost immunity and prevent recurrence.
