Question

Dear Parent, my son is just over 7 months old. Initially, he felt a sore throat when speaking, and it seemed that swallowing was a bit difficult. He also had a slight fever all the time. How should we treat red swelling in children’s tonsillitis effectively?

Answer

To achieve better treatment for tonsillitis, you can choose some anti-inflammatory medications under the guidance of a doctor, and at the same time, opt for regional treatment to enhance the efficacy. Methods include pus pocket irrigation, direct injection of medication into the tonsils, etc. For children with pronounced sore throat symptoms, painkillers can be used. If there is a low fever, physical cooling(cooling) can be applied. If the body temperature exceeds 38.5°, it is advisable to seek medical attention promptly. In addition to these medication treatment methods, if the child frequently develops tonsillitis, it is also recommended to consider surgical treatment. During this period, make sure the child gets plenty of rest and consumes more vegetables and fruits.
