Question
A one-year-old girl is experiencing throat pain, slight coughing, and low-grade fever, suspected tonsillitis, how should treatment be conducted?
Answer
For children with tonsillitis, it is recommended that parents choose suitable antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medications under a doctor’s guidance to effectively alleviate inflammatory symptoms. At the same time, regional treatment methods such as tonsil crypt irrigation or injection of medications can be considered, as these methods can help improve the condition. If the child’s throat pain is severe, appropriate painkillers can be administered. If fever is present, antipyretic medications can be taken; in case of high fever, medical attention should be sought promptly. Additionally, for children who suffer from recurrent attacks, surgical treatment may also be an option. During the treatment period, parents should ensure that the child has a reasonable diet and rest to promote recovery.
