Question
A one-year-old girl is experiencing sore throat, slight cough, and persistent low-grade fever, suspected tonsillitis. How should effective treatment be carried out?
Answer
For children with tonsillitis, it is recommended to use appropriate antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs under the guidance of a doctor to alleviate inflammation. Regional treatments such as tonsil crypt irrigation or intratonsillar injections of medication can also be considered. If pain is severe, painkillers can be administered. For low-grade fever, physical cooling methods can be employed. If the body temperature exceeds 38.5°C, immediate medical attention should be sought. For recurrent inflammation, surgical treatment may be considered. Parents should pay attention to this condition, seek medical attention for their children in a timely manner, and take preventive and health care measures in daily life.
