Question

The baby was born a few days ago, and recently, for some unknown reason, the baby has been constantly scratching their ears. Can a baby with enlarged tonsils be given antibiotic injections?

Answer

Hello, this situation is generally considered to be due to chronic tonsillitis causing the enlargement of the tonsils. Antibiotic injections can be administered. In most cases, during the acute phase, anti-inflammatory treatment is required. You can choose to treat with sensitive antibiotics. It is a case of tonsillitis and can be treated with symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication. Applying Bingxiao powder externally to the affected area can help with inflammation and pain relief. Avoid eating spicy or irritating foods. Drink plenty of water.
