Question

Dear Sir/Madam, my daughter is just 3 months old and has recently been experiencing symptoms such as sore throat, slight cough, fever, and lack of energy. How should red and swollen tonsillitis in children be diagnosed and treated?

Answer

The most common treatment for tonsillitis is antibiotic medication, along with regional treatments such as tonsil crypt irrigation or internal medication injections. For throat pain, appropriate painkillers can be administered; for fever, cooling methods should be chosen based on body temperature. It is recommended that after the condition improves, moderate exercise be incorporated to enhance immunity and prevent recurrence. If there is a history of recurrent inflammation, surgical treatment may be considered.
