Question
Dear parents, my daughter is only 2 months old. She has just started to have a sore throat, and I’ve noticed that her coughing seems more severe. Additionally, she seems to have a low-grade fever that hasn’t gone away. What treatment should be used for pediatric tonsillitis?
Answer
When treating such diseases, children can be given symptomatic antibiotic medications, as well as regional applications of medication, such as tonsil crypt irrigation and intratonsillar injections. If the symptoms are primarily sore throat, painkillers can be considered. If the child continues to have a fever, it is recommended that parents use fever-reducing medication or immediately take the child to the hospital. In addition, surgery is also a viable option, suitable for children with recurrent attacks. After the condition improves, it is suggested that children engage in moderate exercise to enhance their immunity and prevent recurrence.
