Question

A three-month-old male infant is experiencing difficulty swallowing and low-grade fever symptoms, suspected to have tonsillitis. How should it be treated?

Answer

For the treatment of pediatric tonsillitis, parents can first administer anti-inflammatory medication to the child and consider regional irrigation or spray treatments. Symptomatic medications can also be injected into the tonsils, all of which have good therapeutic effects. If there is severe throat pain, painkillers can be used appropriately; for fever, antipyretic drugs can be taken. If the symptoms are severe, immediate medical attention should be sought. For recurrent episodes of tonsillitis, surgical treatment may be considered. Parents should pay attention to this disease, take their children to the doctor in a timely manner, and pay attention to daily prevention and health care.
