Question
My daughter is currently 2 years old and has recently been experiencing a sore throat, severe coughing, and persistent low-grade fever. How should I diagnose and treat her tonsillitis and sore throat?
Answer
For treatment, it is recommended to follow medical instructions, administer oral anti-inflammatory medications to the child, and consider regional treatments such as tonsil crypt irrigation, direct drug injection, etc. If the sore throat is severe, moderate painkillers may be administered. For fever, choose a cooling method based on body temperature; below 38.5 degrees Celsius, consider physical cooling methods, and above 38.5 degrees Celsius, oral fever-reducing medication can be taken. If the medication is ineffective and there are recurrent episodes, it is advisable to consider surgical treatment. After the condition improves, it is recommended to let the child engage in moderate exercise to enhance immunity and prevent recurrence.
