Question

What is newborn tonsillitis?

Answer

Newborn tonsillitis is a common otorhinolaryngological disease, characterized primarily by ear pain and scratching behaviors. If you notice these symptoms in your child, it is advisable to administer appropriate antibiotic treatment, such as oral monkey ear ring anti-inflammatory granules, erythromycin granules, and ribavirin granules, for three to five days continuously. Additionally, you can give your child a decoction of Platycodon grandiflorus granules, and pay attention to a light diet, eating more vegetables and fruits, and drinking plenty of water. If the treatment is not effective, it may be necessary to consider tonsillectomy surgery.
