Question
A four-month-old boy is experiencing pain when swallowing and difficulty in swallowing, along with a persistent high fever. If the child has tonsillitis, what treatment should be considered?
Answer
Antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medications can be considered for treatment, in addition to systemic medication, regional treatments such as tonsil irrigation or drug injections can also be performed. If there is throat pain, analgesics can be used in moderation to reduce fever. If the temperature exceeds 38.5°C, it is advisable to seek medical attention promptly. These are common treatment methods. If tonsillitis recurs frequently, it is recommended to consider surgical treatment as soon as possible, and engage in appropriate exercise to enhance immunity and prevent recurrence.
