Question
My child is only 6 months old, and they have a slight sore throat, accompanied by mild coughing and a persistent low fever. How should I treat this?
Answer
Antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medications can be appropriately used, and regional treatments such as laser therapy or drug irrigation can also be considered. If the sore throat symptoms are severe, it is recommended to use painkillers to alleviate the symptoms. At the same time, if there is a low fever, physical methods can be used to reduce the temperature. If the body temperature exceeds 38.5°C, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. Tonsillitis is prone to recurrence, and if the situation persists, surgery can be considered. During the treatment period, attention should be paid to nutritional supplementation, light diet, adequate rest, and avoiding fatigue.
