Question

A one-year-old boy is experiencing symptoms such as sore throat, severe cough, fever, and lack of energy, suspected to be tonsillitis. How should one effectively treat infant tonsillitis?

Answer

To treat tonsillitis, it is first important to select appropriate anti-inflammatory medications under a doctor’s guidance. Concurrently, regional treatments such as rinsing or direct medication can be administered to enhance efficacy. If the child experiences throat pain, painkillers can be given to relieve discomfort. During fever, consider using fever-reducing medication, but if persistent high fever persists, immediate medical attention should be sought. Tonsillitis may recur; if the condition continues, surgical treatment can be considered after inflammation is controlled. Parents should pay attention to this disease, take their child to the doctor in a timely manner, and implement preventive and health care measures in daily life.
