Question
A boy, aged 1, has initially shown symptoms of throat pain and pain while drinking water, accompanied by a slight cough and persistent low-grade fever. How should one treat a child’s tonsillitis?
Answer
Common treatments for tonsillitis include antibiotic medications, regional treatments such as tonsil crypt irrigation or injection of medication, and for children with significant throat pain, analgesics can be used. Children with fever symptoms can take antipyretics, and in severe cases, immediate medical attention is required. Surgery is also a viable option for children with recurrent episodes, and it is important to maintain health and ensure adequate rest during the treatment period.
