Question
A one-month-old baby girl is suffering from tonsillitis, accompanied by sore throat and severe cough, and has been running a low fever. What should be done to treat the baby’s tonsillitis and low fever?
Answer
When treating such conditions, appropriate antibiotic medications can be administered to the child. For regional treatment, laser therapy or medication irrigation is recommended. If the child’s main symptom is sore throat, parents may consider giving painkillers to relieve discomfort. For fever symptoms, antipyretic drugs can be taken. If symptoms are severe, immediate medical attention should be sought. If the child frequently experiences such situations, after the condition is controlled, surgical treatment may be considered to avoid recurrent episodes. After the condition improves, it is advisable to engage the child in moderate exercise to enhance immunity and prevent recurrence.
