Question
A 9-year-old boy recently experienced a sore throat and severe cough, along with a slight fever, possibly suffering from pediatric tonsillitis with low fever. What treatment should be taken?
Answer
For the treatment of tonsillitis, anti-inflammatory medications can be used under a doctor’s guidance, and regional treatments such as rinsing or medication can be considered to enhance effectiveness. For symptoms primarily characterized by throat pain, analgesics can be taken, and antipyretics can be used for fever. In severe cases, it is advisable to seek medical attention promptly and consider surgery to prevent recurrent episodes. During the treatment period, it is important to stay warm and avoid catching a cold to worsen symptoms.
