Question

The boy is already 2 years old. Initially, he felt pain in his throat when drinking water, and he noticed that swallowing seemed a bit difficult. Moreover, it seems that the low fever has not subsided. Please ask: How should a child’s sore throat due to tonsillitis be treated?

Answer

Generally speaking, children with tonsillitis can be treated with antibiotics according to the symptoms, which is an effective method. In terms of regional treatment, it is recommended to choose laser therapy or medication irrigation. If the child has severe throat pain, painkillers can be administered based on the situation. At the same time, if the child has a low fever, use physical cooling methods to handle it. If the body temperature exceeds 38.5°, seek medical attention promptly. In addition to the above medication treatment methods, if the child frequently develops tonsillitis, it is also recommended to consider surgical treatment. Finally, parents should pay attention to this disease and bring their children for medical treatment as soon as possible. In addition, pay attention to related preventive and health care work in daily life.
