Question
My son is 2 years old. He recently started saying that drinking water causes pain in his throat, and he has a slight cough as well. He has also been running a low-grade fever. How should I treat his painful tonsillitis effectively?
Answer
It is recommended to administer appropriate antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medication, and regional treatments such as tonsil crypt irrigation or intravenous drug injection can be performed. If the child primarily experiences throat pain, painkillers can be administered as necessary. In cases of persistent fever, use fever-reducing medication or seek medical attention promptly. For recurrent episodes, consider surgical treatment. During the treatment period, ensure warmth and avoid catching a cold.
