Question
A three-year-old boy is experiencing symptoms of swallowing pain, slight coughing, and persistent high fever, tonsillitis.How should he be treated to achieve good results?
Answer
The treatment for tonsillitis usually involves antibiotic medications, with the choice of appropriate drugs based on the severity of the condition. While taking medication, regional treatments such as rinsing or direct application of medication can be conducted to enhance the efficacy. If the child has severe throat pain, painkillers can be administered to alleviate discomfort. Some children may also have fever, in which case antipyretic drugs can be given. If symptoms do not improve, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. For recurrent cases, surgical treatment is also an option. During the treatment period, it is important to keep warm and avoid catching a cold to worsen the condition.
