Question
A nine-year-old boy is suffering from tonsillitis with redness and severe cough, accompanied by a persistent low fever. How should one treat it to achieve the best results?
Answer
For children with tonsillitis, appropriate anti-inflammatory medications can be administered, along with regional treatments such as tonsil crypt irrigation or injection of medication. If severe throat pain is present, painkillers can be considered. If fever is present, fever-reducing medication should be given; if symptoms do not subside, medical attention should be sought promptly. Additionally, for cases of recurrent attacks, surgical treatment is also an option. During the treatment period, attention should be paid to staying warm and avoiding catching a cold to worsen the symptoms.
