Patient's question:
My little girl is 9 years old. At first, she had a slight sore throat and found that swallowing was a bit difficult. She also had a low fever. I would like to ask: If a child's tonsillitis is causing discomfort, what treatment is most effective?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 sore throat is severe, appropriate pain relievers can be given. If the child still has a fever, it is advisable to use fever-reducing measures. If the temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, immediate medical attention is necessary. If the child frequently experiences tonsillitis, it is recommended to consider surgery as soon as possible. During this period, ensure the child gets adequate rest and consumes more fruits and vegetables.
