Patient's question:
Female baby, only 1 month old, just starting, a little sore throat, noticed it, accompanied by mild cough, and has had a slight fever for a while. Please ask: How can the child's tonsillitis be treated effectively to relieve discomfort?Doctor's answer:
To achieve better treatment for tonsillitis, you can choose some anti-inflammatory medications under the guidance of a doctor. Additionally, local medication sprays or laser treatment can be administered. If the child's throat pain is severe, appropriate pain-relieving medications can be given. If there is a fever, the method of cooling should be selected based on the body temperature. Below 38.5°C, physical cooling methods can be used, while above 38.5°C, oral fever-reducing medications should be taken. These are all common treatment methods. However, if the child's tonsillitis occurs repeatedly, it is recommended to consider surgery as early as possible. After the condition improves, it is advisable to encourage the child to engage in appropriate exercise to boost immunity and prevent recurrence.
