Question
Dear Baby Girl, 2 years old, initially felt a sore throat with severe coughing and persistent fever. How should red swelling in children’s tonsillitis be treated?
Answer
For a better treatment of tonsillitis, one can choose some anti-inflammatory medications under a doctor’s guidance and also consider regional treatments such as tonsil crypt irrigation or internal medication injections. If the child has severe sore throat symptoms, painkillers are recommended to alleviate the condition. If the child still has a fever, some antipyretics can be taken as appropriate. However, if the fever does not subside, it is essential to seek medical attention promptly. The above methods are currently commonly used in treating tonsillitis. In addition, surgery is also a feasible option, suitable for children with recurrent attacks. Pay attention to a light diet in daily life, and consume mainly liquid foods during treatment.
