Question
A 10-year-old boy, in elementary school, has recently been feeling a sore throat, his voice is a bit hoarse, and he has a slight fever with a lack of energy. What are the most effective treatment methods for pediatric tonsillitis?
Answer
The treatment of pediatric tonsillitis can involve selecting sensitive antibiotics based on bacterial culture, and can also be combined with regional treatment methods such as tonsil crypt irrigation and tonsil injection medication. If the main symptom is throat pain, consider analgesic medication; if the child has a fever, use antipyretics in appropriate amounts. However, if the fever persists, it is essential to seek medical attention promptly. Tonsillitis tends to recur easily. If the condition persists, after controlling the inflammation, surgery may be considered. It is also important to provide light meals and supplement nutrition to help the child recover quickly.
