Question
A five-year-old boy is experiencing throat pain, making it uncomfortable to even drink water, accompanied by severe coughing and persistent fever. What are the effective treatment methods for pain caused by pediatric tonsillitis?
Answer
For pain caused by pediatric tonsillitis, it is recommended to choose appropriate antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medications under the guidance of a physician to alleviate inflammatory symptoms. Regional treatments such as rinsing or spraying, as well as intratonsillar injection of symptomatic medications, can also achieve good results. If there is a sore throat, painkillers may be considered. For fever, antipyretic drugs can be used as needed, but if the fever persists, immediate medical attention should be sought. If tonsillitis recurs frequently, surgical treatment may be recommended. At the same time, attention should be paid to arranging reasonable dietary and lifestyle habits to aid in the early recovery from the disease.
