Question

Dear parents, my daughter is currently 6 years old. Initially, she had a slight sore throat, and it seemed a bit difficult to swallow. She also had a low-grade fever. How should we treat her tonsillitis to achieve the best effect?

Answer

Currently, in clinical treatment of pediatric tonsillitis, antibiotics are mainly used, and the choice of sensitive drugs can be based on bacterial culture, which yields good results. Regional treatment options, such as tonsil crypt irrigation and intratonsillar injection of medication, can also be considered. If the child has severe throat pain, some painkillers may be administered. For children with fever symptoms, antipyretic drugs can be taken. In severe cases, it is advisable to seek medical attention as soon as possible. If the child repeatedly experiences tonsillitis, it is recommended to undergo surgery early. Finally, parents should pay attention to this disease and bring their children for treatment as soon as possible. It is also important to do well in related preventive and health care work in daily life.
