Question
My daughter is 1 year old. Initially, she felt a sore throat when talking, noticed that she had a severe cough, and had been a bit feverish. How should I treat her pediatric tonsillitis effectively?
Answer
Treatment can first be given according to the child’s symptoms with symptomatic anti-inflammatory drugs, also regional rinsing or regional spraying, or injecting symptomatic medications into the tonsils, which are all effective. Also, depending on the child’s condition, some painkillers can be administered, especially when the throat pain is severe.
