Patient's question:
Female baby, currently 3 years old. At first, she felt a sore throat when speaking, noticed it, accompanied by mild coughing, and also had low fever. Please ask: If the child's tonsils are inflamed and very painful, how should it be treated well.Doctor's answer:
For treatment, first, symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication can be given based on the child's symptoms. Additionally, topical medication sprays or laser therapy can be applied. If the child primarily exhibits symptoms of sore throat, it is recommended that parents consider administering pain relievers to alleviate the discomfort. If the child has persistent fever that does not subside, oral fever-reducing medication can be taken. In addition to these medication-based treatments, if the child frequently experiences recurrent inflammation, parents can consult with a doctor and consider surgical treatment under medical supervision. During this period, it is important to ensure the child gets adequate rest and consumes more vegetables and fruits.
