Question

Baby girl, just one month old, has a sore throat and a hoarse voice when speaking, accompanied by slight fever. How should one treat the symptoms of pediatric tonsillitis?

Answer

If a child has tonsillitis, appropriate anti-inflammatory medications can be administered, as well as regional sprays or laser therapy. If the throat pain is severe, painkillers can be considered. If the child has a mild fever, cooling measures can be taken. If the body temperature exceeds 40 degrees, medical attention should be sought promptly. If severe acute symptoms or complications occur, it is recommended to undergo tonsillectomy two weeks after the inflammation subsides. Remind parents to pay attention to this disease, seek medical treatment in a timely manner, and also pay attention to relevant preventive and health care work in daily life.
