Question

Dear Baby, just 4 months old, at first, said she had a sore throat, found that it was accompanied by a slight cough, and it seemed like she had a low fever that never went away. How should red swelling in children’s tonsillitis be treated?

Answer

Antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs are currently the main methods and medications for treating pediatric tonsillitis. Parents can choose according to symptoms. While taking medication, some regional treatments can be performed as well, such as rinsing or direct application of medication, which can consolidate the effectiveness of treatment. If the child’s sore throat is particularly severe, some painkillers are recommended to relieve symptoms. If the child continues to have a fever that does not subside, oral antipyretics can be taken. If your child frequently experiences this situation, surgical treatment can be considered after the condition is controlled to avoid recurrent treatment. At the same time, pay attention to giving the child a light diet and strengthening nutritional supplementation to help them recover as soon as possible.
