Question
A four-year-old boy is experiencing symptoms of swallowing pain, coughing, fever, and lack of energy, suspected to be tonsillitis. How can the pain be effectively treated?
Answer
For the treatment of tonsillitis, anti-inflammatory medications can be chosen under a doctor’s guidance. Regional treatments can consider laser therapy or medication irrigation. If throat pain is the primary concern, painkillers can be administered. For fever, antipyretics can be taken; in case of high fever, immediate medical attention is advised. If the inflammation recurs frequently, surgical treatment can be considered. At the same time, attention should be paid to arranging reasonable dietary and rest habits to help the disease recover sooner.
