Question
My five-year-old daughter has a sore throat, cough, and fever. How should we treat her tonsillitis?
Answer
It is recommended to administer anti-inflammatory medication as prescribed by a doctor, or to undergo regional treatments such as cleaning the tonsil crypts or injecting medication. If the throat pain is severe, painkillers can be considered. If the fever persists, consider using fever-reducing measures. If the fever exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, seek medical attention as soon as possible. If the child frequently experiences tonsillitis, it is advisable to consider surgical treatment. During this period, attention should be paid to diet and hygiene as well as ensuring sufficient rest time.
