Treatment principles: Rest, stay hydrated, symptomatic treatment, and control of infection. Medication principles: For mild cases, oral or intramuscular antibiotics may be used; for severe cases, intravenous infusion may be necessary, and antibiotics can be combined; for those with asthma, additional anti-allergy and bronchodilator medications can be added; for complications, appropriate medications should be selected based on the type of complication.
