Question
Dear parents, our daughter is currently 8 years old and has recently been experiencing a sore throat, difficulty swallowing, and low-grade fever. How should we effectively treat her pediatric tonsillitis symptoms?
Answer
If a child has tonsillitis, anti-inflammatory medication can be considered for treatment. Local therapy may suggest laser therapy or medication irrigation. For children with significant throat pain, painkillers can be considered. If there is a fever, use antipyretic medication or seek medical attention promptly. If a child frequently suffers from tonsillitis, surgery may also be an option. During the treatment period, special attention should be paid to keeping warm and avoiding catching a cold to worsen the symptoms.
