Question

Dear parents, my daughter is only 5 months old. Initially, she had a slight sore throat, and I noticed that her coughing seemed more severe. She also had a bit of a fever and seemed less energetic. How should I treat my child’s tonsillitis with inflammation and swelling?

Answer

For effective treatment of tonsillitis, it is recommended to choose symptomatic anti-inflammatory medications under a doctor’s guidance, perform localized treatments such as rinsing or direct medication, select methods for temperature reduction based on body temperature, consider oral fever-reducing medication if the fever is severe, and consider surgical treatment for recurrent episodes. Additionally, pay attention to providing the child with a light diet and enhancing nutritional supplementation to aid in an early recovery.
