Question
My daughter is 8 years old, and she has been suffering from a sore throat, severe cough, fever, and lack of energy recently. How should we treat infant and toddler tonsillitis effectively?
Answer
If a child has tonsillitis, appropriate antibiotic treatment can be used first. Regional treatments may consider laser therapy or medication washing. For children with severe throat pain, painkillers can be administered. If the fever persists, oral fever-reducing medication can be taken. Tonsillitis often has a tendency to recur. If the condition persists, surgery may be considered after treatment. During the treatment period, it is important to maintain good dietary hygiene and ensure adequate rest time.
