Question
How to Treat a Child’s Sore Throat and Crying Due to Tonsillitis?
Answer
It is recommended that parents, under the guidance of a doctor, choose appropriate antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medications for their child to alleviate inflammation symptoms effectively. In addition to systemic treatment, regional treatment can be chosen to enhance efficacy, including methods such as tonsil crypt irrigation and direct tonsil injection. Painkillers can also be administered to the child for throat pain. Some children may also have a fever, in which case they can take oral antipyretics. If the symptoms cannot be relieved, it is imperative to seek medical attention. For those with recurrent inflammation, surgical treatment may be considered. During the treatment period, it is important to ensure the child’s warmth and avoid exacerbating symptoms by catching a cold.
