Question
My son is 3 years old. Initially, he had a slight sore throat, and it seemed difficult for him to swallow. Now, he has a persistent high fever. How should I treat my child’s sore throat and crying due to tonsillitis?
Answer
Currently, in the clinical treatment of pediatric tonsillitis, antibiotics are primarily used. The choice of sensitive drugs can be made based on bacterial culture, with good results. Concurrently, regional treatments such as rinsing or direct medication can be administered to consolidate the efficacy. If a child experiences severe throat pain, it is recommended to administer painkillers as needed.
