Question
Baby boy, just over seven months old, starts to feel throat pain when talking, accompanied by mild coughing and fever. How should red swelling of infants’ tonsillitis be treated?
Answer
The main method of clinical treatment for infants’ tonsillitis is the use of antibiotics and anti-inflammatory medications, which parents can choose according to the symptoms. For children with severe conditions, regional treatments such as tonsil lavage and injection medications can be combined. For children with significant throat pain, painkillers can be used. If the child continues to have a fever, timely use of antipyretics is recommended; physical cooling can be performed if the temperature does not exceed 38.5 degrees Celsius. Tonsillitis often has a recurrent feature; if there are similar situations, consider surgical treatment. After the condition improves, it is suggested to allow the child to engage in moderate exercise to enhance immunity and prevent recurrence.
