Question
A 2-year-old boy is experiencing swallowing pain, severe coughing, and persistent high fever, tonsillitis. How should one treat a child’s tonsillitis and low fever?
Answer
The treatment of children’s tonsillitis usually involves administering anti-inflammatory medications as prescribed by a doctor, with regional treatments such as laser therapy or pharmacological irrigation being options. If the child has severe throat pain, painkillers can be used to relieve discomfort. When fever symptoms occur, medications with fever-reducing effects can be taken. In case of severe symptoms, immediate medical attention should be sought. Tonsillitis may recur; if the condition persists, surgery can be considered after the inflammation is controlled. During treatment, it is advisable to maintain a light diet and consume mainly liquid foods.
