Question
My son is just over 3 months old. Initially, he felt pain when drinking water, and I noticed that his voice was a bit hoarse when he spoke. Additionally, he has a low-grade fever. How should I treat his pediatric tonsillitis and sore throat for the best effectiveness?
Answer
If a child has tonsillitis, symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication can be administered, along with regional treatments such as rinsing or direct medication to reinforce the effect. If the main symptom is sore throat, painkillers can be considered. Additionally, if there is a fever, antipyretic drugs can be taken. For high fever, it is recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible. If the medication is ineffective and the symptoms recur, surgical treatment may be considered. Finally, parents should pay attention to this disease, seek medical treatment for their child as soon as possible, and pay attention to related preventive and health care work.
