Question
My child is a 2-year-old boy. When he started talking, he felt a sore throat, accompanied by slight coughing and fever, and seemed a bit listless. What are some effective treatment methods for pediatric tonsillitis?
Answer
Antibiotics are commonly used to treat tonsillitis, and regional cleaning or the use of sprays can also be considered. Medications can also be injected into the tonsils for therapeutic effects. If the throat pain is severe, appropriate painkillers can be administered. If the child continues to have a fever, parents can use fever-reducing medication or seek immediate medical attention. Tonsillitis tends to recur easily, and after controlling the inflammation, surgery can be considered. After the condition improves, it is recommended that children engage in moderate exercise to boost their immunity and prevent recurrence.
