Question
A nine-year-old boy is experiencing throat pain, severe coughing, fever, and lack of energy, suspected of tonsillitis. How should one treat the pain caused by pediatric tonsillitis?
Answer
Antibiotics are commonly used in the treatment of pediatric tonsillitis, with appropriate antibiotics chosen based on the situation. In addition, regional treatment methods include tonsil crypt irrigation, tonsil intramuscular injections, laser therapy, and others. For throat pain, analgesics can be administered to relieve pain. If fever is present, consider using antipyretics; however, if the fever persists, immediate medical attention should be sought. For recurrent episodes of tonsillitis, surgical treatment is recommended. Parents should take this disease seriously, bring their children to the doctor in a timely manner, and do their best to prevent and maintain health in daily life.
