Question
How should a child’s earache and tonsillitis be treated?
Answer
The recommended treatment is to follow the doctor’s instructions and administer anti-inflammatory medication to the child. If the condition is severe, regional treatment can also be considered, such as using anti-inflammatory ear drops. If the child experiences ear pain, appropriate painkillers can be given. If there is a fever, fever-reducing medication can be considered, but if the fever persists, medical attention must be sought promptly. Otitis media is prone to recurrence, and if there is a perforation of the eardrum, immediate medical attention is necessary. During treatment, it is important to ensure that the child receives adequate nutrition, maintain a light diet, and get plenty of rest to avoid fatigue.
