Question
Dear Baby, she’s only 5 months old. Initially, she had a slight pain in her throat, and I noticed that she was coughing more severely. Now, she has a persistent high fever. How should I treat the sore throat caused by tonsillitis in children?
Answer
When treating such diseases, you can give the child some symptomatic antibiotic medications. You can also combine it with some regional treatment methods, such as tonsil crypt irrigation and tonsil injection medications, which are also quite good. If the child has a particularly sore throat, you can consider giving some painkillers. If the child still has a fever, you can consider giving some fever-reducing medication. However, if the fever persists, it is imperative to seek medical attention promptly. In addition to these drug treatment methods, if the child frequently experiences tonsillitis, it is also recommended to consider surgical treatment. During the treatment period, it is also important to maintain good dietary hygiene and ensure enough rest time.
