Question
Dear parents, my 8-month-old daughter has a sore throat that has worsened, her voice is hoarse, and she has a persistent fever. How should we treat her pediatric tonsillitis and crying effectively?
Answer
When treating a child’s tonsillitis, symptomatic anti-inflammatory medications can be used, or consider regional treatments such as tonsil irrigation or injection medications. If the main symptom is throat pain, anesthetic medications can be administered, and the fever should be addressed. If symptoms persist, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. To avoid recurrent inflammation, consider surgical treatment, and pay attention to nutritional supplementation, light diet, and adequate rest to avoid fatigue.
