Question

An 8-year-old boy is experiencing throat pain, which is especially uncomfortable when drinking water, with a hoarse voice, accompanied by a fever and lack of energy. How should one treat the pain of infant and child tonsillitis to achieve good results?

Answer

The main clinical treatments for pediatric tonsillitis are antibiotics and anti-inflammatory medications. Parents should choose the appropriate medication based on their child’s specific symptoms. In terms of regional treatment, laser therapy or medication irrigation can be considered. For children with pronounced throat pain, analgesics can be administered. If there are fever symptoms, medications with fever-reducing effects can be taken. In case of severe symptoms, immediate medical attention should be sought. Additionally, if a child frequently suffers from inflammation, parents may consider surgical treatment under the doctor’s advice. Finally, parents should pay attention to this disease, bring their children to the doctor in a timely manner, and pay attention to prevention and health care in daily life.
