Question
A 3-year-old boy. Initially, he experienced pain in his throat while speaking, and now he also has a cough and fever. How should pediatric tonsillitis and sore throat be treated?
Answer
The primary treatment for pediatric tonsillitis involves the use of antibiotics and anti-inflammatory medications. Additionally, regional therapies such as cleaning the tonsillar cavity, intratonsillar injections of medication, and laser therapy can be considered. If the throat pain is severe, painkillers may be used. For fever, cooling methods should be selected based on body temperature. Tonsillitis tends to recur easily, and if the condition persists, surgical treatment may be considered. After recovery, it is recommended to engage in moderate exercise to enhance immunity and prevent recurrence.
