Question

The 5-year-old girl initially felt a sore throat when speaking, and it was discovered that her cough was also quite severe, and she had been slightly feverish. How should we treat the child’s sore throat caused by tonsillitis for the best effect?

Answer

When treating such diseases, you can give the child some symptomatic antibiotic medications. In addition to systemic medication, regional treatment can also be performed, such as tonsil crypt irrigation or tonsil injection. Under the condition of sore throat, analgesics can be administered to the child. If the child has fever symptoms, some antipyretic drugs can be taken. In severe cases, it is advisable to seek medical attention as soon as possible. In addition to the above medication treatment methods, if the child has recurrent tonsillitis, it is also recommended to consider surgical treatment. During the treatment period, it is important to ensure the child’s warmth and avoid exacerbating symptoms by catching a cold.
