Question
Baby girl, currently 1 year old, has just started to feel a sore throat when speaking, accompanied by mild coughing and fever with lack of energy. Question: How should pain from pediatric tonsillitis be treated?
Answer
Antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medications can be appropriately administered for treatment. Regional treatment suggestions include laser therapy or drug irrigation. If the child’s throat pain is severe, painkillers can be given. For children with fever symptoms, antipyretic medications can be taken. If the situation is serious, medical attention should be sought as soon as possible. In addition to the above medication treatment methods, if the child frequently experiences tonsillitis, it is recommended to consider surgical treatment. During the treatment period, ensure the child gets adequate rest and consumes more vegetables and fruits.
