Question
My child is a 8-year-old boy. He has been feeling a sore throat recently, with his voice sounding hoarse and a persistent high fever. How should I treat his tonsillitis crying and distress?
Answer
You can administer a moderate dose of antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medications, use regional medications in the form of sprays or laser therapy, and consider painkillers if the throat is extremely painful. For fever, you can take antipyretic medications in moderation. If the fever persists, it is imperative to seek medical attention promptly. If there are recurrent episodes, surgical treatment may be considered. During the treatment period, pay attention to dietary hygiene and ensure adequate rest.
