Question
My daughter is 4 years old. Initially, she felt pain when drinking water, and I noticed she had a slight cough and had been running a low-grade fever. What should be the treatment for children’s tonsillitis?
Answer
When treating such diseases, you can give the child some symptomatic antibiotic medications, and also combine with some regional treatment methods, such as tonsil crypt irrigation, tonsil injections, etc., which are quite effective. For children with obvious throat pain, analgesic drugs can be used. If the child continues to have a fever that does not subside, some antipyretic drugs can be taken orally. For those with recurrent inflammation, surgical treatment can be considered. Parents should also pay attention to keeping the child well-warmed to prevent catching a cold and triggering a recurrence of tonsillitis.
