Question
My daughter is 2 years old, and she recently has been experiencing sore throat, coughing, and fever. How can I effectively treat red swelling in pediatric tonsillitis?
Answer
For a child with tonsillitis, parents can administer anti-inflammatory medications and consider regional treatment measures such as tonsil crypt irrigation or intratonsillar injection of medication. If there is a sore throat, painkillers can be given as needed, and antipyretics can be taken if there is a fever. If the high fever persists, it is advisable to seek medical attention promptly. If the inflammation recurs frequently, surgery may need to be considered. At the same time, it is important to arrange the child’s diet and rest reasonably to assist in the recovery from the disease.
