Question

Dear parents, my 9-year-old daughter is experiencing a sore throat, hoarseness, and a persistent low-grade fever. How should we treat her tonsillitis?

Answer

It is generally recommended to follow the doctor’s instructions and administer oral anti-inflammatory medication to the child, along with regional treatment methods such as tonsil cleaning and injection medications. If there is severe pain, painkillers may be considered to alleviate the discomfort. If fever is present, an oral fever reducer can be taken. If the condition persists, seek medical assistance. For cases with poor response or recurrence, consider surgical treatment. After recovery, it is advisable for the child to engage in moderate exercise to strengthen their immune system and prevent recurrence.
