Question
The child was born just a few days ago and has been frequently scratching their ears recently. I want to ask, which is better for children with tonsillitis: Fenqinamin or Ceftriaxone?
Answer
Tonsillitis is usually caused by Streptococcal infection, which may lead to serious complications such as rheumatic fever, arthritis, and nephritis, so timely treatment is necessary. Generally, Streptococcal infections are still effective against penicillin, so it is recommended to use penicillin or cephalosporin antibiotics at the hospital. In addition, some traditional Chinese medicine with cooling and detoxifying effects can also be considered, along with a light diet.
