Question

Dear parents, our daughter is 8 months old and has recently started to experience a sore throat while speaking, accompanied by severe coughing and slight fever. How can we effectively treat pediatric tonsillitis?

Answer

To effectively treat tonsillitis, you can choose anti-inflammatory medications under the guidance of a doctor for symptomatic treatment. If regional treatment is needed, laser therapy or medication rinsing methods are recommended. If the main symptom is sore throat, painkillers can be considered. If the child has a fever, a small amount of fever-reducing medicine can be used, but if the fever persists, please seek medical attention promptly. For recurrent inflammatory conditions, surgical treatment can be considered. During the treatment process, it is important to maintain good dietary hygiene and ensure that there is enough rest time.
