Question
My child was born just a few days ago, and recently, I don’t know why, they have been constantly scratching their ears. What medicine can be used to treat throat pain?
Answer
Throat pain in children is often caused by tonsillitis, usually due to insufficient water intake leading to internal heat. If there is no fever, medication or a hospital visit is not necessary. Simply giving the child plenty of water and eating cooling fruits or foods can help ease the symptoms. For example, honeysuckle has cooling properties. However, if severe symptoms arise, it is advisable to visit a specialist clinic promptly and receive treatment under a doctor’s guidance. In daily life, attention should be paid to dietary issues, and it is hoped that the child will recover soon!
