Question

How should one handle the sore throat in a child with pediatric tonsillitis?

Answer

Currently, the main treatment for pediatric tonsillitis involves antibiotics, which can be selected based on the sensitivity of the causative bacteria. Regional cleaning or spraying, as well as injecting symptomatic medication into the tonsils, can also be considered, with good results. If there is severe sore throat or fever, oral painkillers or fever-reducing medication can be taken. After the condition stabilizes, consider surgical treatment to prevent recurrence, and it is recommended to have a light diet and consume mainly liquid foods during treatment.
