Question
A 2-year-old boy has pain when swallowing water, accompanied by coughing and fever with a lack of energy. How should pediatric tonsillitis be treated?
Answer
Treatment for pediatric tonsillitis may include symptomatic antibiotics, regional treatments such as laser or medicated rinses. If there are sore throat symptoms, appropriate pain relievers can be given to alleviate the pain. For fever, antipyretic medications can be taken. Seek early medical attention if necessary. If the condition recurs, consider surgical treatment. After recovery, it is recommended to engage in moderate exercise to enhance immunity and prevent recurrence.
