Question

My daughter is 6 years old and has recently been experiencing sore throat, coughing, and a low fever. How should I treat her for tonsillitis and sore throat?

Answer

For the treatment of tonsillitis, you can choose anti-inflammatory medications under a doctor’s guidance; you can also opt for regional cleaning or spraying; or you can inject the appropriate medication into the tonsils, all of which have good effects. For children with obvious sore throat symptoms, painkillers can be used. If fever is present, fever-reducing medication can be taken. If the high fever persists, it is recommended to seek medical attention early. In cases of multiple acute severe attacks or complications, it is recommended to perform tonsillectomy two weeks after the acute inflammation subsides. After the condition stabilizes, it is suggested to let the child engage in moderate exercise to enhance immunity and prevent recurrence.
