Question

What are the treatment methods for pediatric tonsillitis and sore throat?

Answer

Generally speaking, if a sore throat is caused by pediatric tonsillitis, the following treatment methods can be considered: First, administering antibiotics to the child is usually effective as a symptomatic treatment. Additionally, regional drug sprays or laser therapy can be used. If the main symptom is sore throat, painkillers can be considered to relieve the symptoms. If the child has a fever, antipyretic medication can be taken. In severe cases, it is advisable to seek medical attention as soon as possible. In addition to medication, if the child frequently experiences recurrent tonsillitis, parents can consult with a doctor to consider surgical treatment. During the treatment period, it is important to provide the child with light and fluid foods.
