Question
A two-month-old male baby is suffering from tonsillitis, presenting symptoms such as difficulty swallowing, persistent low fever, and sore throat. How should pediatric tonsillitis be effectively treated?
Answer
The treatment of pediatric tonsillitis primarily involves the use of antibiotics and anti-inflammatory medications. If the child’s symptoms are severe, combined regional therapy such as tonsil crypt irrigation or injection of medication may be considered. For children with severe throat pain, painkillers can be used; children with fever should take antipyretic drugs. In case of severe illness, immediate medical attention is required. For cases that frequently recur, parents may consider surgical treatment under the doctor’s advice. In addition, a reasonable diet and lifestyle arrangement is crucial for the recovery from the disease.
