Question
The child has been scratching his ears since birth, and recently there’s no apparent reason for it. What are the reasons for frequent tonsillitis in children?
Answer
Based on the symptoms you described, it is likely caused by internal heat leading to tonsillitis. The treatment should include anti-inflammatory therapy, which can be combined with intravenous drip treatment and pediatric medicines such as Yin Qiao Pills, Sikao, etc. Tonsillitis is an acute infection of the upper respiratory tract, a bacterial infection, and is a non-specific acute inflammation of the palatine tonsils accompanied by varying degrees of acute inflammation of the pharyngeal mucosa and pharyngeal lymph ring. Antibiotics can be considered for intravenous administration.
