Question
A baby boy, just over 1 month old, initially experienced a slight pain in the throat, noticed a hoarse voice during speaking, and has been running a fever. How should a child with tonsillitis be treated effectively?
Answer
In treating such diseases, you can give the child some symptomatic antibiotics, and at the same time, some regional treatments can be carried out, such as rinsing or direct medication, to consolidate the efficacy. If the child’s sore throat is severe, it is recommended to administer painkillers according to the situation. If the child keeps running a fever, parents should also give some antipyretic medication, or take the child to the hospital immediately. In addition to these drug treatment methods, if the child frequently develops tonsillitis, it is also recommended to consider surgical treatment. At the same time, attention should also be paid to arranging reasonable dietary and lifestyle habits for the child to help the disease recover as soon as possible.
