Question
A 7-year-old boy reports sore throat, severe cough, and persistent high fever. How can one effectively treat the child’s tonsillitis with crying?
Answer
Currently, antibiotics and anti-inflammatory medications are the main treatments for pediatric tonsillitis, along with regional treatment methods such as rinsing the tonsillar crypts, internal drug injections, and laser therapy. For children with significant throat pain, painkillers can be used, and fever-reducing medications can be taken in moderation if there is a fever. However, if the fever persists, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. If a child frequently suffers from recurrent inflammation, parents may consider surgical treatment, while also paying attention to a reasonable diet and rest schedule, which can help in early recovery.
