Question

A boy, 8 years old, is in elementary school. He recently started complaining of pain when swallowing, and it seems his coughing has become more severe. He also has a low-grade fever. How should red swelling in children’s tonsillitis be treated effectively?

Answer

Treatment for children’s tonsillitis can involve selecting sensitive antibiotic medications based on bacterial culture. For regional treatment, it is recommended to choose laser therapy or medication irrigation. If the throat pain is severe, some painkillers can be administered appropriately. If the child still has a fever, it may be appropriate to take some antipyretic medication. However, if the fever persists, it is essential to seek medical attention promptly. If the medication is not effective and there are repeated occurrences, it is advisable to consider surgical treatment. During treatment, it is important to ensure the child receives adequate nutrition, with a diet mainly consisting of light foods. It is also important to ensure the child gets plenty of rest and avoids fatigue.
