Question
A 4-year-old boy has recently been experiencing a sore throat, hoarseness, and fever. How should red swelling of pediatric tonsillitis be treated?
Answer
The current clinical treatment for pediatric tonsillitis primarily involves antibiotics, which can be selected based on the results of bacterial culture and the sensitivity of the medication. Regional treatments such as rinsing or regional medication can be administered to further solidify the therapeutic effect. For throat pain, painkillers can be provided. If there is a fever, appropriate cooling methods can be chosen based on the body temperature. If the medication is ineffective and there are repeated occurrences, it is recommended to consider surgical treatment. During the treatment period, ensure that the child gets plenty of rest and consumes more fruits and vegetables.
