Question
A 10-year-old boy, a primary school student, has recently been experiencing sore throat, worsening cough, and persistent fever. How should one effectively treat crying caused by infant and toddler tonsillitis?
Answer
For the treatment of tonsillitis, it is recommended to use anti-inflammatory medications under a doctor’s guidance. Additionally, consider local drug sprays or laser therapy. If there is a sore throat, painkillers can be given to the child; for fever, antipyretics can be taken. In case of severe symptoms, immediate medical attention is advised. For recurrent acute tonsillitis or those with complications, it is suggested to undergo tonsillectomy two weeks after the acute inflammation subsides. During the treatment period, arrange for a child-friendly diet and enhance nutritional intake to promote recovery.
