Question
Dear Baby, she’s only 9 months old. Initially, she mentioned a sore throat, and upon inspection, it was found that she also had a slight cough and had been running a low fever. What should be the effective treatment for a child’s tonsillitis and sore throat?
Answer
Generally speaking, if it’s a case of pediatric tonsillitis, it can be effectively treated by administering some antibiotics to the child. While taking medication, regional treatments such as rinsing can also be performed to consolidate the effect. Painkillers can be given when necessary, especially when the child’s sore throat is severe. If the child continues to have a persistent fever, oral fever reducers can be administered. In cases of recurrent inflammation, surgical treatment may be considered. Pay attention to a light diet and consume mainly liquid foods during treatment.
