Question
My child is a 4-year-old boy, and he has recently been experiencing a sore throat, coughing, and low-grade fever. How should I treat his tonsillitis?
Answer
To effectively treat tonsillitis, you can choose anti-inflammatory medications under a doctor’s guidance, along with regional rinsing or spray treatments, or even symptomatic injections. Also, use pain relievers as needed. If the child has a fever, try to bring down the temperature; if the body temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, seek medical attention promptly. If the child frequently gets tonsillitis, consider surgical treatment. At the same time, pay attention to giving him a light diet and enhancing nutritional supplements to help him recover sooner.
