Question
Dear Sir/Madam, my daughter is currently 9 years old and has recently been experiencing a sore throat that is painful when drinking water. Her voice has become hoarse, and she also has a fever with a lack of energy. How should pediatric tonsillitis be treated for the best effect?
Answer
The primary treatment for pediatric tonsillitis is to have the child take symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication. Regional treatments can consider laser therapy or medication rinses. For severe pain, analgesics can be used in moderation. Fever can be treated with antipyretics, and if the condition is severe, medical attention should be sought as soon as possible. If symptoms recur frequently, surgical treatment may be an option. It is also important to provide a light diet, increase nutritional supplements, and help the child recover quickly.
