Baby girl, just 8 months old, has just started to feel pain when swallowing water, and it seems a bit difficult to swallow. Additionally, she has a low-grade fever. How should a child with red, swollen tonsils be treated? Antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs are currently the main methods and medications for clinical treatment of pediatric tonsillitis. Parents can choose according to symptoms. For regional treatment, it is recommended to choose laser therapy or pharmacological irrigation. If the throat pain is severe, some painkillers can be appropriately administered. If the child still has a fever, some antipyretic medication can be taken. However, if the fever persists, it is essential to seek medical attention promptly. If the drug treatment is ineffective and the condition recurs, surgical treatment is recommended.
