Question
A 8-year-old boy is experiencing severe sore throat, coughing, fever, and fatigue. How should tonsillitis be treated in children?
Answer
If a child has tonsillitis, medication treatment can be chosen, including antibiotics, regional treatments such as cleaning the crypts or injecting medication, and painkillers can be used to alleviate throat pain. If there is a fever, antipyretic medication is needed. If the condition is severe, it is recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible. If attacks are frequent, surgery can be considered. In everyday life, it is advisable to have a light diet, and during treatment, mainly consume liquid foods.
