Question
A 4-year-old girl is experiencing a sore throat, slight cough, and high fever, suspecting tonsillitis. What should be the treatment approach?
Answer
Treatment for children’s tonsillitis can involve selecting certain anti-inflammatory medications under a doctor’s guidance, or using regional rinsing or spraying methods. Tonsillar injections with symptomatic medications can also be effective. If the sore throat is severe, painkillers may be administered to the child based on the situation. Additionally, if accompanied by fever, especially if it is persistent and high, it is recommended to seek medical attention early. If a child repeatedly experiences tonsillitis, surgery may need to be considered. Parents should pay attention to the prevention and health care of this disease and seek medical treatment promptly.
