Question
A 12-year-old boy, in elementary school, initially complained of pain when swallowing or drinking water. He now has a persistent high fever. What is the best way to treat a baby’s tonsillitis and achieve good results?
Answer
Generally speaking, for children with tonsillitis, antibiotics can be administered for symptomatic relief. Regional rinsing or medication spray can also be used, and symptomatic medications can be injected into the tonsils, which is effective. For children with severe throat pain, analgesics can be administered. If the child has a fever, it should be managed appropriately. If the temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, medical attention should be sought promptly. The above are common treatment methods. If a child’s tonsillitis recurs frequently, it is recommended to undergo surgery as soon as possible. During the treatment period, proper diet and hygiene, as well as adequate rest, should be maintained.
