Question
My daughter is 6 years old. Initially, she felt a sore throat when speaking, and I noticed that her cough seemed more severe, and she seems to have a low-grade fever that hasn’t gone away. What should be the treatment for children’s tonsillitis if it is not severe?
Answer
It is recommended that parents choose suitable antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs under the guidance of a doctor to give their child, which can effectively alleviate the inflammatory symptoms. It can also be combined with some regional treatment methods, such as tonsil crypt irrigation and tonsil injection medications, which are quite good. If the symptoms are mainly throat pain, consider giving some painkillers. If the child has a fever, they can take some fever-reducing medications. In severe cases, it is advisable to seek medical attention as soon as possible. If the drug treatment is not effective and the condition recurs frequently, it is recommended to consider surgical treatment. During treatment, it is also important to arrange for a light diet for the child, strengthen nutritional supplementation, and help them recover as soon as possible.
