Question
What should be done when a child experiences recurrence of respiratory infections after tonsillectomy?
Answer
Firstly, nasal endoscopy surgery should be performed to clear the nasal cavity and sinus lesions. Then, the patient needs to practice self-care by frequently using diluted saltwater to clean the nasal cavity to restore the normal function of the nasal mucosa. Regular follow-ups are also necessary. Patients may consider taking traditional Chinese medicine like Allergy Tablets or Allergy Oral Liquid. Respiratory system infections in children can have various causes. If a child is diagnosed with a respiratory system infection, parents should immediately cooperate with the doctor for treatment, including gastrointestinal decompression, and develop good hygiene habits. Parents should also pay attention to avoid children’s picky eating and ensure a balanced diet.
