Question
Baby girl, 5 months old, with symptoms of sore throat, cough, and persistent high fever. How to treat the sore throat in pediatric tonsillitis?
Answer
Treatment for this condition can include administering appropriate antibiotic medications and regional treatments such as tonsil irrigation or injection of medication. If the primary symptom is sore throat, painkillers can be considered; if accompanied by fever, choose a cooling method based on body temperature. It is important to note that if there are acute severe symptoms or complications, it is recommended to perform tonsillectomy after the acute inflammation subsides. At the same time, attention should be paid to reasonable dietary and rest arrangements to promote recovery.
