Question
Dear parents, our baby girl is just one month old and has recently been experiencing symptoms such as throat pain, severe coughing, and persistent fever. How should we effectively treat a child’s tonsillitis?
Answer
For the treatment of this condition, it is advisable to administer appropriate antibiotic medications to the child, which can be complemented with regional treatments such as tonsil washing or injection therapy. If there is throat pain, painkillers can be considered, and fever symptoms can be treated with antipyretics. In severe cases, it is recommended to seek medical attention promptly and consider tonsillectomy after the acute inflammation subsides for two weeks. Additionally, parents should ensure warmth and avoid catching a cold to prevent a recurrence of tonsillitis.
