Question
My 3-month-old boy has a sore throat and hoarse voice, with a slight fever. How should I treat his infant tonsillitis and sore throat?
Answer
It is advised for parents to select suitable antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs under the guidance of a doctor to relieve inflammatory symptoms, and at the same time, regional therapy can be performed to enhance the efficacy, such as tonsil lavage and tonsil injection. If the sore throat is severe, painkillers can be used in moderation. In case of fever, oral antipyretics can be taken. If the treatment is not effective, it is recommended to seek medical attention, and in some cases, consider surgical treatment. During the treatment period, feed with light and easy-to-digest foods.
