Question
A 10-year-old boy is experiencing a sore throat, difficulty swallowing, and fever. What are the treatment methods for pediatric tonsillitis?
Answer
Antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medications can be appropriately used. Regional treatment may consider laser or drug rinsing. If severe throat pain is present, painkillers can be used. For accompanying fever, oral fever-reducing medication can help alleviate symptoms. If these measures are ineffective, seek medical consultation. Tonsillitis tends to recur easily, and surgical treatment may be considered. At the same time, pay attention to reasonable feeding and rest arrangements to help recover sooner.
