Question
Dear Baby, only 2 months old, has started to feel pain when swallowing water, coughing has worsened, accompanied by a low-grade fever. How should tonsillitis be treated?
Answer
Pediatric tonsillitis can be treated with antibiotics and can consider local treatment methods such as tonsil irrigation and injection medications. If there is significant throat pain, painkillers can be used as appropriate. When there is a fever, fever reducers can be taken, but if there is a high fever, medical attention should be sought as soon as possible. Severe cases may require tonsillectomy surgery, and during the treatment period, attention should be paid to keeping warm and avoiding catching a cold.
