Question
My son is 8 years old. Initially, he had a slight sore throat, and I noticed that his coughing seemed more severe, and he also had a low-grade fever. How should a child’s tonsillitis and crying be effectively treated?
Answer
It is recommended that parents choose appropriate antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs for their child under a doctor’s guidance, which can effectively alleviate inflammatory symptoms. In addition, regional drug sprays or laser therapy can be administered, and painkillers can be given to the child for throat pain. If fever is present, some fever-reducing medication can be taken. In case of high fever, it is advisable to seek medical attention promptly. For those with recurrent inflammatory episodes, surgical treatment may be considered. During the treatment period, attention should also be paid to maintaining dietary hygiene and ensuring sufficient rest time.
