Question

How should one treat discomfort caused by a child’s tonsillitis?

Answer

Generally, for pediatric tonsillitis, antibiotics can be used for treatment. At the same time, systemic treatment can also opt for regional treatment methods, such as tonsil crypt irrigation and regional injections, to enhance the efficacy. If there are symptoms of sore throat, painkillers can be administered. If the child continues to have a fever, parents can use fever-reducing medications or seek immediate medical attention. In addition to medication treatment, if the child frequently experiences recurrent inflammation, parents may also consider surgical treatment, while ensuring the child gets adequate rest and consumes plenty of vegetables and fruits.
