Question

The child was born not long ago, and recently, for some reason, the child has been constantly tugging at their ears. What should be done to treat a child’s swollen tonsils?

Answer

Tonsillitis is an acute infection of the upper respiratory tract, usually caused by bacteria, and is a non-specific acute inflammation of the palatine tonsils. It often accompanies varying degrees of acute inflammation of the pharyngeal mucosa and pharyngeal lymphoid ring. Treatment may include intravenous administration of antibiotics. Since tonsillitis can cause significant harm to patients, it is recommended that patients seek specialized medical consultation in a timely manner and receive treatment under the guidance of a doctor. In daily life, appropriate exercise can be done, and precautions should be taken to avoid heat. It is hoped that the child will recover soon!
