Question
A 7-year-old girl has recently started experiencing a sore throat, severe cough, and low-grade fever when speaking. How can pediatric tonsillitis be effectively treated?
Answer
The treatment of pediatric tonsillitis involves a comprehensive approach. Selecting a sensitive antibiotic based on the results of bacterial culture is recommended, as well as regional drug spray or laser therapy. For throat pain, painkillers can be used, and for persistent fever, oral antipyretics are advisable. If the condition recurs frequently, surgery may be considered after treatment. Adequate warmth and avoiding exacerbation of symptoms are also important.
