Question
An 8-month-old baby was diagnosed with acute tonsillitis a week ago, accompanied by a low-grade fever. After three days of penicillin injections and taking bacterial dissolution tablets and antipyretic and detoxification medications, the baby developed a low-grade fever again and made a snoring sound in the throat during sleep, suggesting a recurrence of inflammation. How should such a situation be treated?
Answer
The baby’s symptoms may indicate that the medication treatment has not completely resolved the condition. It is recommended to conduct a routine blood test on the baby to determine the cause, thereby treating it specifically. The treatment for tonsillitis should be based on detailed examination results to ensure the selection of an appropriate treatment plan. Additionally, in daily life, attention should be paid to the baby’s diet, avoiding overeating or under-eating, and preventing excessive eating and drinking to promote recovery.
