Question
A 13-year-old boy experienced sore throat, hoarseness, and fever along with malaise while in elementary school. How should red swelling in children’s tonsillitis be treated?
Answer
Treatment for children’s tonsillitis typically involves the use of antibiotics. Additionally, regional medications in spray form or laser therapy can be used. If the child’s throat pain is severe, analgesics can be administered in appropriate amounts. If there is a persistent fever, antipyretic drugs can be used. In cases of recurrent inflammation, surgical treatment may be considered. During the treatment period, it is essential to keep warm, avoid catching a cold, and prevent the exacerbation of symptoms.
