Patient's question:
Boy, just turned 8 months old. At first, it was said that even drinking water with his throat felt painful. He noticed that swallowing seemed a bit difficult, and it seemed like a low fever that never went away. Please ask: if the child's tonsils are inflamed and very painful, how should the diagnosis and treatment be handled.Doctor's answer:
First, for treating pediatric tonsillitis, parents can give their child some anti-inflammatory medication. For local treatment, laser therapy or medication rinsing is recommended. If the symptoms are primarily sore throat, pain-relieving medication can be considered. If the child has a persistent fever, parents can give them fever-reducing medication or take them to the hospital immediately. If there is a history of recurrent inflammation, surgical treatment may be considered. Finally, it is hoped that parents can take this disease seriously, bring their child to the doctor for early treatment, and also pay attention to relevant prevention and health care measures in daily life.
