Question
My daughter is currently 2 years old and has started to feel a sore throat, accompanied by a slight cough and low-grade fever. How should pediatric tonsillitis be diagnosed and treated?
Answer
The treatment for pediatric tonsillitis can be chosen based on bacterial culture, with appropriate antibiotics selected along with regional treatments such as rinsing or direct medication to consolidate the efficacy. In cases of severe throat pain, painkillers can be considered to relieve discomfort. For fever, physical or oral coolingmethods can be chosen according to body temperature. If the inflammation recurs frequently, surgical treatment can be considered. After treatment, it is recommended to engage in moderate exercise to enhance immunity and prevent recurrence.
