Question

Dear readers, my 9-year-old daughter is currently experiencing a sore throat, slight cough, and fever. How can we effectively treat her crying due to tonsillitis?

Answer

When a child has tonsillitis, anti-inflammatory medications can be used for treatment. If the condition is severe, consider regional treatments such as tonsil washing or injection therapy. For sore throat symptoms, painkillers can be chosen to relieve discomfort. If there is persistent fever, timely use of fever-reducing medication is recommended, and physical cooling methods can be considered if the temperature exceeds 38.5 degrees Celsius. Surgical treatment is also a viable option for children with recurrent episodes. During the treatment period, enhance the child’s nutritional supplements, maintain a light diet, rest more, and avoid fatigue.
