Question

My 2-year-old daughter has a sore throat, hoarse voice, fever, and lacks energy. What is the best way to treat pediatric tonsillitis?

Answer

Generally, it is recommended to follow the doctor’s instructions for anti-inflammatory medication. Consider regional use of medication sprays or laser therapy. If the child’s sore throat is severe, painkillers can be used appropriately; if there is still a fever, it should be promptly reduced. If the body temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, medical attention should be sought as soon as possible. Tonsillitis tends to recur, and after controlling the inflammation, surgery can be considered. Parents should pay attention to this disease, seek medical treatment early, and pay attention to preventive and health care work in their daily lives.
