Question
A 2-year-old boy has a sore throat, slight cough, fever, and is listless. How should pediatric tonsillitis be treated to achieve good results?
Answer
It is recommended that parents consult with a doctor to choose the appropriate antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medications for their child, which can effectively alleviate inflammatory symptoms. For regional treatment, laser therapy or medication irrigation is suggested. If the main symptom is throat pain, painkillers can be considered. If the child continues to have a fever, parents should also give the child fever-reducing medication or take them to the hospital immediately. In addition to these medication treatment methods, if the child frequently experiences inflammation, parents can also choose surgery under the guidance of a doctor. At the same time, it is also important to arrange a reasonable diet and rest schedule for the child to help the disease recover as soon as possible.
