Question
Dear parents, my daughter is currently 9 years old. She just started saying that she feels pain when swallowing, and I noticed that her voice sounds a bit hoarse, and she’s been running a slight fever. What should be done to treat her tonsillitis effectively?
Answer
If a child has tonsillitis, the first step is to use symptomatic antibiotic medication. In addition, regional medication sprays or laser therapy can be administered. For children with pronounced sore throat symptoms, painkillers can be used. If the child has a fever, it is appropriate to take some antipyretic medication. However, if the fever persists, it is essential to seek medical attention promptly. These are some commonly used treatment methods. If the child’s tonsillitis recurs frequently, it is recommended to consider surgery as soon as possible. Finally, parents should pay attention to this disease and bring their children for medical treatment as soon as possible. Also, be sure to pay attention to relevant prevention and health care work in daily life.
