Patient's question:
Boy, already 4 years old. At first, there was a little pain in the throat. He noticed that the cough seemed to be more severe as well, and it was accompanied by low fever. Please ask: How should tonsillitis and sore throat in children be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
If a child gets tonsillitis, symptomatic anti-inflammatory drugs can be given. While undergoing systemic treatment, local treatment can also be chosen to enhance efficacy. Methods include crypt irrigation, direct injection of medication into the tonsils, etc. For sore throat, pain relievers can be given to the child. If the child has a persistent fever, parents can also administer fever-reducing medication or take the child to the hospital immediately. The above methods are commonly used for treating tonsillitis currently. Additionally, surgery is also a feasible option, suitable for children who experience recurrent episodes. Pay attention to a light diet, and during treatment, a liquid diet should be primarily followed.
