Question
My child frequently gets colds and has a high fever now; the tonsils are very large. Some doctors say it’s chronic tonsillitis, and they mentioned that I was older (39 years) when I was pregnant, which could have lowered the child’s immunity.
Answer
Condition Analysis: Repeated tonsillitis infections, with enlarged tonsils affecting normal life, may warrant a tonsillectomy. The removal of the tonsils is generally safe; precautions include avoiding spicy and irritating foods. Strengthening the immune system and preventing colds are important. Pediatric tonsillitis can be quite harmful to patients, so it is recommended that patients seek timely consultation with a specialist and follow the doctor’s treatment guidance. In daily life, it is advisable to drink plenty of water and pay close attention to dietary issues, hoping the child can recover quickly!
