Question
My son is 6 years old, and he recently said his throat hurts, and it feels a bit difficult to swallow, and he has been running a fever. How do you diagnose and treat children’s tonsillitis and fever?
Answer
In treating such diseases, children can be given symptomatic antibiotic medications or regional treatments, such as tonsil crypt irrigation and intratonsillar injections. If the main symptom is throat pain, painkillers can be considered. If the child has fever symptoms, antipyretic medications can be taken. In severe cases, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. In addition to these medication treatment methods, if the child frequently experiences inflammation, parents can also consider surgical treatment under a doctor’s guidance. Pay attention to light and healthy eating habits, and consume mainly liquid foods during treatment.
