Question
My child has had recurrent tonsillitis for the past two years, and every time it flares up, it causes a high fever. I’m really worried that his body might be damaged this way. Please ask: When a child’s tonsillitis has a little pus, what medications can be used?
Answer
This condition is usually caused by bacterial infection leading to enlarged tonsils and pus-covered white coating on the tonsils. This is a common occurrence. It is recommended to give your child oral or intravenous antibiotics, such as ceftriaxone sodium, take some Lanqin oral liquid, drink plenty of hot water, and eat less cold food. For patients with severe tonsillitis, it is advisable to seek medical attention promptly and follow the doctor’s advice for quick treatment. Do not arbitrarily switch to new medications for treatment, as this may result in the opposite of the desired effect. I hope the above answer can help you, thank you.
