Question
My son, just over 8 months old, started to feel a sore throat when he spoke, and I noticed that his voice was a bit hoarse when he talked. At the same time, it seems like he has had a low-grade fever that hasn’t gone away. How should an infant’s tonsillitis crying be treated effectively?
Answer
If a child has tonsillitis, symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication can be administered. Regional treatment is recommended to choose laser therapy or medication irrigation. Painkillers can also be given based on the child’s condition to alleviate pain, especially when the throat is very sore. If there is a fever, antipyretic medication can be taken, and it is advisable to seek medical attention as soon as possible for high fever. The above methods are currently commonly used in the treatment of tonsillitis. In addition, surgery is also a viable option for children with recurrent attacks. Pay attention to ensure the child gets adequate rest and consumes more vegetables and fruits.
