Question
Dear Baby, she is only 3 months old. At first, she said her throat hurt, and I noticed that her voice was a bit hoarse, and she has been a bit feverish. How should pediatric tonsillitis be treated?
Answer
The first step in treatment is to administer appropriate anti-inflammatory medication based on the child’s symptoms, and regional treatment or symptomatic injections can also be considered. These treatment methods are quite effective. If the child’s throat pain is severe, painkillers can be considered, and fever reducers can be taken orally if fever is present. If the symptoms do not subside, medical attention should be sought promptly. For frequent recurrence, surgery may be considered after treatment. Pay attention to a light diet for the child, with a focus on liquid foods during treatment.
