Question
My daughter is 2 years old and has a sore throat accompanied by a slight cough and low fever. How should I effectively treat her pediatric tonsillitis?
Answer
For children with tonsillitis, antibiotic medications or regional treatments such as tonsil crypt irrigation or injection of medication can be used. If the main symptom is throat pain, painkillers can be considered to relieve discomfort. If the child continues to have a fever, oral fever-reducing medication can be administered. If there are repeated severe acute symptoms or complications have already occurred, it is recommended to undergo tonsillectomy two weeks after the acute inflammation subsides. After recovery, it is suggested to engage in moderate exercise to enhance immunity and prevent recurrence.
