Question

A two-year-old child was treated for tonsillitis in the hospital for ten days and has recovered, but the parents are worried about the child’s tonsils recurring with inflammation and high fever, which may affect the child’s health in the long run. How should this situation be handled?

Answer

In this case, the main consideration is the child’s insufficient immunity leading to frequent tonsillitis. It is recommended to take oral immune-boosting medications such as transfer factors or polydextrose granules for nourishment. If the situation requires, consider surgical removal of the tonsils. When facing tonsillitis, timely symptomatic treatment should be sought without delaying medical consultation. If tonsillitis does not heal after long-term treatment, it is necessary to adjust the treatment plan promptly.
