Question
My son is 2 years old, and he has a sore throat, hoarse voice, fever, and lacks energy when speaking. How can I effectively treat his pediatric tonsillitis?
Answer
Current treatment methods for tonsillitis often include antibiotic medication, which can be chosen according to the situation. In addition to systemic treatment, regional treatments can also be considered to enhance efficacy, such as pus pocket irrigation and direct medication injection into the tonsils. If the child has severe throat pain, painkillers can be administered; fever can be treated with antipyretic drugs. In case of severe conditions, it is advisable to seek medical attention promptly. Tonsillitis is prone to recurrence, and after controlling the inflammation, surgical treatment can be considered. It is recommended that parents pay attention to this disease, seek medical treatment for their child early on, and pay attention to related prevention and health care work.
