Question
My child is a 2-year-old boy. Initially, he felt pain when swallowing water, and I noticed that he had difficulty swallowing. He also had a slight fever and seemed lackluster. How should I treat my child’s tonsillitis and sore throat?
Answer
In terms of treatment, it is generally recommended to follow the doctor’s orders and give the child some anti-inflammatory medication. Additionally, regional medication sprays or laser therapy can be administered, and painkillers can be given based on the child’s condition, especially when the throat pain is severe, which can help alleviate suffering. If the child continues to have a fever, parents should also administer fever-reducing medications or take the child to the hospital immediately. If the medication is not effective and the condition recurs, it is recommended to consider surgical treatment. During the treatment period, it is also important to maintain good dietary hygiene and ensure adequate rest time.
