Question
My daughter is 2 years old. Initially, she felt pain when swallowing or drinking water, and now she has a more severe cough. Moreover, she has a persistent fever. How should red swelling of pediatric tonsillitis be diagnosed and treated?
Answer
Appropriate antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medications can be administered, and regional treatment methods can also be used, such as tonsil crypt irrigation and tonsil injection medications. In cases of sore throat, painkillers can be given to the child. If the child still has a fever, some antipyretic medication can be taken. However, if the fever persists, it is necessary to seek medical attention promptly. These are common treatment methods. However, if the child’s tonsillitis recurs frequently, it is recommended to consider surgery as soon as possible. At the same time, attention should also be paid to arranging a reasonable diet and lifestyle for the child to help the disease recover as soon as possible.
