Question
A boy is 1 year old and has recently been experiencing severe sore throat, coughing, and fever. How to treat the crying situation in a child with tonsillitis?
Answer
Follow the doctor’s orders to administer anti-inflammatory medication to the child, which can be combined with tonsil crypt irrigation or injection treatments. If severe throat pain is present, painkillers may be given as needed. If the child has a fever, it should be controlled; if the temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, medical attention should be sought promptly, and surgery may be considered to prevent recurrence of inflammation. Parents should ensure warmth and avoid catching a cold to prevent tonsillitis from flaring up again.
