Question

Dear parents, my daughter is currently 9 years old and has recently been experiencing a sore throat and hoarse voice, accompanied by a low fever. How should we treat children’s tonsillitis and sore throat effectively?

Answer

Antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medications can be used, along with local treatments such as tonsil irrigation and drug injections. Adequate painkillers can help alleviate the sore throat, while physical cooling(cooling) can be used for the low fever. It’s important to maintain good dietary hygiene and ensure sufficient rest. If the fever exceeds 38.5°C, medical attention should be sought promptly. If tonsillitis recurs frequently, surgical treatment may be considered.
