Question
My daughter is 7 years old and has a sore throat accompanied by a slight cough and low fever. How should pediatric tonsillitis be treated?
Answer
To treat tonsillitis, you can use anti-inflammatory medications as recommended by a doctor, undergo local treatments such as rinsing, intramuscular injections, or laser therapy, provide pain relief medication, and use physical methods to reduce fever. If the fever exceeds 38.5 degrees Celsius, seek medical assistance. For long-term conditions, consider surgery for preventive treatment to prevent recurrence. Ensure your child gets adequate rest and consumes enough fruits and vegetables.
