Question
What should be noticed when a child has a red and swollen tonsil?
Answer
For children with chronic tonsillitis and adenoid hypertrophy, if there are no obvious complications, it is best to seek conservative therapy as much as possible before the age of 6, primarily through traditional Chinese medicine decoctions. If the treatment is not effective, consider surgical removal after the age of 6. For specific treatment plans, please refer to relevant articles. If traditional Chinese medicine treatment is needed, you can consult by phone. Tonsillitis can be quite harmful to children, so it is recommended to seek specialist consultation and treatment under a doctor’s guidance. In daily life, appropriate exercise can be done, and attention should be paid to prevent heat syndrome, hoping the child can recover quickly!
