Question
Dear parents, our daughter is currently 4 years old and has recently been experiencing symptoms such as sore throat, severe coughing, and slight fever. How should we handle the situation of a child with tonsillitis?
Answer
For the treatment of such diseases, it is considered to administer a moderate dose of antibiotic medication to the child, and regional use of medication sprays or radiation therapy can be considered. If the main symptom is sore throat, painkillers can be considered. Timely use of fever-reducing medication is important for children with persistent fever. For temperatures not exceeding 38.5 degrees Celsius, physical cooling(temperature reduction) can be considered. If the child frequently experiences tonsillitis, it is recommended to consider surgical treatment as soon as possible, while ensuring the child gets adequate rest and consumes plenty of vegetables and fruits.
