Question

How to treat frequent recurrences of pediatric pharyngeal herpes?

Answer

The treatment of pediatric pharyngeal herpes primarily involves boosting immunity, ensuring adequate rest, and supplementing with vitamins B and C, as well as easy-to-digest liquid foods such as fresh juice and milk. During high fever, oral children’s APC tablets or physical cooling methods can be administered. At the same time, viral remedies, antiviral oral liquids, or Isatis root decoctions can be used. For oral ulcers, topical applications of muscle-promoting spray, stomatitis spray, or watermelon frost spray can be applied. The perioral lesions can be treated with 1% gentian violet, and antibiotics should be taken orally to prevent secondary infections. In severe cases, treatment with intravenous injections of double-banlangen and antibiotics may be necessary.
