Question
My daughter is 7 years old and has symptoms of throat pain, difficulty swallowing, and persistent high fever. How should we treat the red and swollen tonsillitis in children?
Answer
To effectively treat tonsillitis, you can choose anti-inflammatory medications under a doctor’s guidance. Regional treatments can consider laser therapy or medication irrigation. For children with severe throat pain, painkillers can be used, and antipyretics can be taken if there is a fever. If the condition is severe, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. In addition, surgery is an option, particularly suitable for children who have recurrent attacks. During the treatment period, it is important to maintain good dietary hygiene and ensure adequate rest time.
