Question
How should one treat a child’s crying and fussing due to tonsillitis for effective relief?
Answer
Generally speaking, for pediatric tonsillitis, administering some antibiotics to the child can achieve a better therapeutic effect. Additionally, regional treatments can be considered, including tonsil crypt irrigation, intratonsil drug injections, and laser therapy. If the primary symptom is throat pain, painkillers should be given consideration. If the child has a fever, antipyretics can be administered in moderation. However, if the fever persists, it is imperative to seek medical attention promptly. In addition to the above medication treatments, for children with frequent recurrent tonsillitis, it is also recommended to consider surgical treatment. At the same time, during the treatment process, it is important to ensure the child has a light diet and enhances nutritional supplementation to aid in an early recovery.
