Question
My daughter is 3 years old. Initially, she felt pain when drinking water and had a slight cough and low-grade fever. How should pediatric tonsillitis be diagnosed and treated?
Answer
Currently, the clinical treatment of pediatric tonsillitis mainly involves antibiotic medications, which can include sensitive drugs, as well as regional drug sprays or laser therapy. Painkillers or antipyretic treatments are provided based on the child’s condition. For fever, cooling methods can be chosen according to body temperature. Tonsillitis is prone to recurrent episodes, and surgery can be considered after inflammation is controlled. It is recommended that parents pay attention to this disease, seek medical treatment as soon as possible, and pay attention to preventive and health care measures.
