Question
Dear parents, my baby girl is just one month old. She has started to feel a sore throat when she speaks, and I’ve noticed she’s been coughing quite severely. She also has a slight fever. How should I treat my child’s tonsillitis effectively?
Answer
If a child has tonsillitis, symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication can be administered. Additionally, regional drug sprays or laser therapy can be considered. If the child experiences severe throat pain, it is recommended to give some painkillers based on the situation. If there is also a fever, some fever-reducing medication can be taken. In case of high fever, it is advisable to seek medical attention as soon as possible. In addition to these medication treatments, if the child frequently experiences inflammation, parents can choose to undergo surgery under the guidance of a doctor. During this period, ensure that the child gets plenty of rest and consumes more vegetables and fruits.
