Patient's question:
Boy baby, just turned 3 months old, just started, a little sore throat, found that cough seems to be more serious, and accompanied by low fever, please ask: How can the swollen and red tonsils of the child be treated effectively.Doctor's answer:
Antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs are currently the main methods and medications for clinical treatment of pediatric tonsillitis. Parents can choose them based on symptoms, or opt for local irrigation or topical sprays. Medications can also be injected into the tonsils for targeted treatment, all of which have good efficacy. If the child's main symptom is sore throat, it is recommended that parents consider giving pain relievers to alleviate the discomfort. Additionally, if the child has a fever, they can take fever-reducing medication. However, for high fever, it is still advisable to seek medical attention promptly. These are all common treatment methods. However, if the child experiences recurrent tonsillitis, it is recommended to consider surgery as early as possible. During treatment, it is important to provide the child with adequate nutrition, focusing on a light diet, and ensure they get plenty of rest to avoid fatigue.
