Question
My child was diagnosed with acute tonsillitis a week ago, with low-grade fever. They have been taking penicillin for three days, bacterial dissolution tablets, and herbal medicine for clearing heat and detoxifying. Now, they have a low-grade fever again and are snoring loudly while sleeping, which seems like the inflammation has returned. How should I treat my baby’s tonsillitis more reliably?
Answer
This situation often occurs due to poor immunity in children, making them susceptible to infections that lead to recurrent tonsillitis and symptoms such as intermittent fever. To address this, it is important to actively cooperate with the doctor for anti-inflammatory treatment and consider traditional Chinese medicine treatments. Self-healing can be achieved through boosting immunity and nourishment. This includes coordinating with traditional Chinese medicine to regulate the spleen and stomach functions. Additionally, it is crucial to enhance nutrition and digestion in everyday life. During the treatment of tonsillitis, aside from timely treatment, the patient’s dietary condition and mental state are also of great importance. The patient must maintain a light diet and always maintain a positive and optimistic attitude to avoid unnecessary effects on the complete recovery from tonsillitis.
