Question
The baby boy just turned 9 months old and is experiencing symptoms such as sore throat, coughing, and fever. How should pediatric tonsillitis be treated?
Answer
Under a doctor’s guidance, you can choose to treat with medications that have anti-inflammatory effects, such as laser therapy or medication rinses. For sore throat symptoms, consider giving pain-relieving medications. If the child continues to have a fever, use fever-reducing medicine or seek medical attention immediately. Tonsillitis is prone to recurrent episodes, and after recovery, surgery can be considered. At the same time, pay attention to the child’s diet and rest schedule to help them recover sooner.
