Question

My daughter is 2 years old. Initially, she said her throat was sore, and I noticed she had a more severe cough and had been slightly feverish. How should I treat her red swollen tonsils?

Answer

To effectively treat tonsillitis, it’s advisable to select appropriate anti-inflammatory medications under a doctor’s guidance. Additionally, local drug sprays or laser therapy can be administered. If the child has a sore throat, painkillers can be given. If there’s still a fever, antipyretics can be taken. However, if the fever persists, it is crucial to seek medical attention immediately. If medication is ineffective and the condition recurs frequently, surgery may be recommended. After the condition improves, it’s suggested to have the child engage in moderate exercise to enhance immunity and prevent recurrence.
