Question
My daughter is only 2 months old and has recently been experiencing a sore throat and hoarseness, along with a fever and fatigue. How should pediatric tonsillitis be treated for optimal effectiveness?
Answer
It is advised for parents to select suitable antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medications under a doctor’s guidance for their child’s treatment, which can effectively alleviate inflammatory symptoms. Additionally, regional treatments such as tonsil irrigation, regional medication injections, and laser therapy can be considered. For children with severe sore throat symptoms, painkillers may be used; antipyretics should be administered promptly during persistent fever; and for children with recurrent inflammatory episodes, surgical treatment may be considered. After the condition improves, it is recommended to allow the child to engage in moderate exercise to enhance immunity and prevent recurrence.
