Question
A three-year-old child has been running a fever for two days, with a runny nose, cough, phlegm, slight nausea, and a slightly swollen tonsil. What should be done?
Answer
Based on the description, the child may be suffering from tonsillitis causing the fever and respiratory symptoms. It is recommended to give the child symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication and traditional Chinese medicine for clearing heat and detoxifying, such as Lanqin Oral Liquid or Anti-inflammatory Oral Liquid. At the same time, attention should be paid to observing the child’s condition changes. If the symptoms do not improve or worsen, medical treatment should be sought promptly.
