Question
A 6-year-old girl, initially complaining of pain when swallowing, noticed more severe coughing, and has had a slight fever. How should red swelling in pediatric tonsillitis be treated?
Answer
To treat pediatric tonsillitis, parents can first give the child some anti-inflammatory medication. Additionally, regional drug sprays or laser therapy can be administered. If the throat pain is severe, some painkillers can be appropriately given. If there is also a fever, some antipyretics can be taken. In case of high fever, it is recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible. For those with recurrent inflammation, surgical treatment may be considered. At the same time, attention should also be paid to arranging a reasonable diet and sleep habits for the child to help the disease recover as soon as possible.
