Question

My daughter is 9 years old and has recently been experiencing symptoms such as sore throat, hoarse voice, and lack of energy with fever. How should I treat her crying due to tonsillitis?

Answer

You may appropriately administer some antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medications, and perform regional treatments such as tonsil crypt irrigation and laser therapy. If the throat pain is severe, consider using painkillers to alleviate symptoms. If there is a persistent fever, parents can give fever-reducing medication or seek immediate medical attention. If the medication is not effective and the symptoms recur, it is recommended to consider surgical treatment. In addition, parents should also pay attention to keeping warm and avoid catching a cold to prevent a second episode of tonsillitis.
