Question

How to treat children’s tonsillitis?

Answer

It is generally recommended to administer symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication under a doctor’s guidance. In addition to systemic medication, regional treatments can also be performed, such as tonsil washing or regional drug injection. Painkillers can be used for throat pain. Some children may have a fever, in which case oral fever-reducing medication can be taken; if this is ineffective, it is essential to seek medical attention. Tonsillitis often has a tendency to recur, and if the situation is similar, surgery can be considered after the inflammation is controlled. After the condition improves, it is suggested that children engage in moderate exercise to boost their immunity and prevent recurrence.
