Question

The baby girl is only 3 months old, and recently she has been suffering from sore throat, difficulty swallowing, and occasional fever. How should one handle a child’s tonsillitis?

Answer

Antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medications can be considered, along with regional treatments such as tonsil irrigation or injection of medication. If the throat pain is severe, painkillers can be used to alleviate symptoms, and fever-reducing drugs should be taken according to the fever situation. If high fever persists, it is recommended to seek medical attention promptly. If tonsillitis symptoms frequently recur, surgical treatment may be considered. During the treatment period, attention should be paid to dietary hygiene and adequate rest.
