Question
A two-month-old female infant is experiencing sore throat, severe coughing, and low-grade fever, suspected of tonsillitis. How should one effectively treat an infant’s tonsillitis and low fever?
Answer
For infants suffering from tonsillitis, appropriate anti-inflammatory medications can be administered as per medical advice. If the condition is severe, regional treatments such as tonsil crypt irrigation or injection of medication can be considered. For severe throat pain, painkillers can be used in appropriate amounts. If the fever persists, oral antipyretics can be given. In addition to medication, if the infant frequently recurs inflammation, parents may consider surgical treatment under the doctor’s recommendation. During the treatment period, attention should be paid to dietary hygiene and ensuring adequate rest.
