Question
Dear Sir/Madam, my baby girl is just 5 months old. Initially, she felt pain in her throat even when drinking water, and it seemed difficult for her to swallow. She also has a low-grade fever. How should I treat my child’s sore throat effectively?
Answer
When treating such diseases, children can be given symptomatic antibiotics, undergo regional treatments, including tonsil crypt irrigation, tonsil injection, and laser therapy. If the main symptom is throat pain, consider painkillers. If the child continues to have a fever, parents can administer fever-reducing medication or take the child to the hospital immediately. These are common treatment methods. However, if the child’s tonsillitis recurs frequently, it is recommended to consider surgery as early as possible. At the same time, pay attention to giving the child a light diet and strengthening nutritional supplementation to help recover as soon as possible.
