Question
A 3-year-old girl is experiencing throat pain, hoarseness when speaking, pain when drinking water, and a slight fever with a lack of energy. These symptoms could be caused by tonsillitis. How should this condition be effectively treated?
Answer
Tonsillitis can be treated with antibiotics, and regional treatment methods such as laser therapy or medication rinses can be chosen. If the throat pain is severe, painkillers can be administered according to the situation. Additionally, if the child has a fever, a fever-reducing medicine can be given. However, if the symptoms do not improve, medical attention should be sought promptly. If tonsillitis occurs repeatedly, surgery may need to be considered. During the treatment process, ensure that the child gets enough rest and maintains good dietary hygiene.
