Question
A four-month-old baby boy is experiencing sore throat, severe cough, and low-grade fever. How should tonsillitis in children be treated?
Answer
Currently, the common treatment for tonsillitis includes the use of antibiotics, and regional treatments such as rinsing or injections can also be considered. For sore throat, painkillers can be used, and oral fever-reducing medication can be taken for persistent fever. It is recommended to consider tonsillectomy after acute inflammation, while also paying attention to the child’s reasonable diet and rest to promote recovery.
