Question

There is a 9-year-old boy at home with a sore throat and fever, his voice is hoarse. How should it be handled?

Answer

Treatment for pediatric tonsillitis can initially include anti-inflammatory medication for the child, along with regional treatments such as rinsing the tonsils, injecting medication, and laser therapy. If there is severe throat pain, painkillers can be administered. For fever, cool the body temperature according to the body temperature; below 38.5 degrees Celsius, physical cooling can be used, and oral antipyretics can be taken for high temperatures. For those with recurrent inflammation, consider surgical treatment, and pay attention to light diet, nutritional supplementation to promote recovery.
