Question
A three-year-old boy is experiencing throat pain, hoarseness, and low-grade fever, suspected of having tonsillitis. How should one effectively treat the pain of a child’s tonsillitis?
Answer
The treatment of children’s tonsillitis can be based on the results of bacterial culture to select the appropriate antibiotic, while also adopting regional treatment methods such as tonsil crypt irrigation or drug injection. If the main symptom is throat pain, painkillers can be considered. During fever, antipyretics can be taken, and immediate medical attention should be sought in case of high fever. If the drug treatment is ineffective and there are recurrent episodes, it is recommended to consider surgical treatment. Parents should pay attention to this disease, take their children to the doctor in a timely manner, and take preventive and health care measures in daily life.
