Question
A 6-month-old girl is experiencing symptoms of throat pain, severe coughing, and persistent low-grade fever, tonsillitis Redness. How should she be treated?
Answer
The treatment for red swelling of the tonsils usually involves administering anti-inflammatory medication as prescribed by a doctor, as well as regional rinsing or spraying, with intratonsillar injections also proving effective. If the child’s main symptom is throat pain, parents may consider giving painkillers to relieve discomfort. During fever, fever-reducing medication can be taken, and in cases of high fever, medical attention should be sought promptly. If tonsillitis recurs frequently, surgical treatment may be considered. During the treatment period, a light diet should be arranged, and nutritional supplements should be enhanced to aid in a quick recovery.
