Question
My daughter, who is currently 9 years old, has been experiencing sore throat, hoarseness, and fever. What are the effective treatment methods for children’s tonsillitis?
Answer
The treatment for children’s tonsillitis can initially involve giving the child anti-inflammatory medication, considering laser therapy or pharmacological irrigation. If there is a sore throat, painkillers can be administered. If there is a fever, it should be treated promptly; if it exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, medical attention should be sought immediately. If the tonsils frequently become inflamed, surgery may be recommended. During this period, it is advisable to supplement nutrition, maintain a light diet, and ensure adequate rest to avoid fatigue.
