Patient's question:
Boy, already 4 years old. At first, he felt sore throat even when drinking water. He found that his cough was quite severe, and it seemed like his low fever never subsided. Please ask: How should tonsillitis and sore throat in children be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
Currently, in clinical treatment of pediatric tonsillitis, antibiotics are primarily used. Sensitive medications can be selected based on bacterial culture, which has shown good effects. For local treatment, laser therapy or medication rinsing is recommended. Pain relievers can also be given to children, especially when the sore throat is severe, to alleviate discomfort. If the child has persistent fever that does not subside, oral antipyretics can be administered. If the medication is ineffective and the condition recurs frequently, surgical treatment is recommended. During treatment, it is also important to arrange a light diet for the child and enhance nutritional supplementation to help them recover as soon as possible.
