Question
Dear Baby Girl, she is currently 3 years old. Initially, she felt a sore throat when speaking, and found that swallowing was a bit difficult. She also had a slight fever and seemed listless. How should a child’s sore throat be treated effectively?
Answer
Currently, in clinical treatment of pediatric tonsillitis, antibiotics are mainly used. The choice of sensitive drugs can be made based on bacterial culture, with good effects. Regional medication can also be used, such as tonsil crypt irrigation and tonsil injection. If the child’s sore throat is particularly severe, it is recommended to use painkillers to alleviate symptoms. If the child continues to have a fever, timely use of antipyretics is recommended. Physical cooling can be applied if the temperature does not exceed 38.5 degrees Celsius. These methods are commonly used in the treatment of tonsillitis. In addition, surgery is also a viable option for children with recurrent attacks. Lastly, parents are advised to take this disease seriously, seek medical treatment for their children as soon as possible, and pay attention to doing related preventive and health care work in their daily lives.
