Question
The boy is already 1 year old. He started saying he had a sore throat. Noticing that his voice was a bit hoarse when speaking, and also had a low fever. How should a child with tonsillitis and crying be treated?
Answer
Treatment for pediatric tonsillitis can involve selecting sensitive antibiotic medications based on bacterial culture, and can also be supplemented with some regional treatment methods, such as tonsil crypt irrigation and tonsil injections, which are also effective. For children with pronounced symptoms of throat pain, analgesic medications can be used. If the child continues to have a fever that does not subside, oral antipyretics can be taken. If the child repeatedly experiences tonsillitis, it is recommended to undergo surgery as soon as possible. Lastly, parents should pay attention to this disease and take their children for medical treatment as soon as possible. In addition, they should also pay attention to related preventive and health care work in their daily lives.
