Question
Dear readers, our 8-year-old daughter has recently been experiencing a sore throat, slight cough, and persistent high fever. How should we treat her tonsillitis inflammation?
Answer
For pediatric tonsillitis, common treatment methods include antibiotic therapy, regional treatment (such as tonsil crypt irrigation, drug injection, laser therapy), pain medication management, and fever reduction. When the throat pain is severe, painkillers can be considered; if accompanied by low-grade fever, physical cooling measures can be taken. If the fever exceeds 38.5°C, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. Surgical treatment is applicable for children with recurrent attacks, and it is also necessary to pay attention to reasonable dietary and rest arrangements to promote recovery.
