Question
Baby girl, just 5 months old, complaints of throat pain, difficulty swallowing, and persistent low fever. How should pediatric tonsillitis with sore throat be treated?
Answer
Appropriate use of antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medications is recommended, and regional treatments such as tonsil washing or injection medications can be considered. For children with obvious sore throat symptoms, painkillers can be used. If there is fever, fever-reducing medicine can be considered, but if the fever persists, medical attention should be sought promptly. Surgery is a method of treatment for recurrent episodes, and it is also important to arrange a reasonable diet and rest habits to assist in recovery.
