Patient's question:
Boy baby, just turned 4 months old, just starting, feels a sore throat when talking, notices it, cough seems to be quite severe as well, and accompanied by low fever. Please ask: How should the child's tonsillitis be treated if it's uncomfortable?Doctor's answer:
Antibiotic drugs are commonly used for treating tonsillitis and can be selected accordingly. In addition to systemic medication, local treatments such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar drug injection can also be performed. For children with significant sore throat symptoms, pain-relieving medications can be used. If a child has persistent fever that does not subside, antipyretic drugs can be administered orally. In cases of multiple acute severe episodes or complications, tonsillectomy is recommended two weeks after the acute inflammation subsides. At the same time, it is also important to arrange a reasonable diet and sleep schedule for the child to help the disease recover as soon as possible.
