Question
A three-month-old baby girl is experiencing swallowing pain, her voice is hoarse during speech, and she has a persistent low-grade fever that has not subsided. How should one treat the discomfort caused by a child’s tonsillitis?
Answer
Treatment for tonsillitis may include appropriate antibiotic medications for children, along with regional treatment methods such as tonsil crypt irrigation or tonsil injections. For children with pronounced sore throat symptoms, painkillers can be used. If the child continues to have a fever, timely application of antipyretic medication should be considered, and physical cooling methods can be adopted if the temperature does not reach 38.5 degrees Celsius. Additionally, if the child frequently experiences inflammation, parents may consider surgical treatment under the doctor’s advice. During the treatment period, it is important to keep the child warm and avoid catching a cold to worsen the symptoms.
