Question

After three days of IV treatment following tonsillitis, the child had to undergo another three days of IV treatment due to abscess. Now that the body temperature has returned to normal, is it still necessary to continue with IV treatment and medication?

Answer

Based on your description, it is recommended to continue the treatment, possibly for about another week. It is advised to ensure the child stays well-hydrated, avoids spicy foods, and increases the intake of vegetables and fruits. Additionally, consider bloodletting therapy at the Shao Shang acupoint, and prepare a Sichuan Bupleurum Honey Pear Drink for the child to consume. At the same time, provide the child with a moderate amount of anti-inflammatory medication and honeysuckle granules. Hope these suggestions are helpful to you, and wish the baby a healthy growth.
