Question
Dear Sir, my son is just over 9 months old. He has just started to feel a sore throat when talking, and I noticed that he is coughing quite severely. Additionally, it seems like he has had a low-grade fever that hasn’t gone away. How should red swelling in children’s tonsillitis be treated?
Answer
You can appropriately administer some antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs, and also combine them with regional treatment methods, such as tonsil crypt irrigation and tonsil injection medications. If the child has severe throat pain, it is recommended to give some painkillers according to the situation. If the child still has a fever, then you should consider fever-reducing medication. If the temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, it is necessary to seek medical attention as soon as possible. In addition to these medication treatment methods, if the child frequently suffers from tonsillitis, it is also recommended to consider surgical treatment. During this period, make sure the child gets adequate rest and eats more vegetables and fruits.
