Question

A 3-year-old boy has a sore throat, hoarse voice, and fever. How should pediatric tonsillitis be treated?

Answer

Treatment for pediatric tonsillitis can include sensitive antibiotic medications, such as oral or regional administration, such as tonsil washing and injectable drugs. For severe sore throat, painkillers can be considered, and oral fever-reducing medication can be taken if fever is present. If symptoms do not subside, medical assistance should be sought. If there are recurrent acute attacks or complications have already occurred, it is recommended to undergo tonsillectomy after the acute inflammation subsides. Parents are advised to take this disease seriously, seek medical treatment early, and pay attention to preventive and health care work.
