Question

My daughter is 2 years old, and she experiences pain when swallowing water, accompanied by a slight cough and fever. How should I treat her tonsillitis for the best results?

Answer

The most common treatment for tonsillitis is antibiotics, and regional treatment methods such as tonsil washing or injection of medication can also be considered. If the throat pain is severe, analgesics can be used appropriately, and antipyretics should be administered promptly when fever persists. If the temperature exceeds 38.5 degrees Celsius, physical cooling methods can be considered. If the child continues to suffer from recurrent inflammation, it is advisable to consult a doctor and consider surgical treatment. At the same time, arrange for light meals and supplement nutrition to assist in early recovery.
