How to treat a child’s tonsillitis effectively when it’s red and swollen?

Answer

If a child has tonsillitis, the first choice is to use targeted antibiotic medications. Regional rinsing or spraying, as well as the injection of symptomatic drugs into the tonsils, can also be effective. If the child experiences severe throat pain, painkillers can be considered. In cases of fever, appropriate fever reduction is necessary; if the temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, medical attention should be sought promptly. In addition to medication, if a child frequently suffers from tonsillitis, surgical treatment may also be an option. Parents should ensure warmth and avoid colds to prevent recurrent inflammation.
