Question
Dear parents, my daughter is just 5 months old. Initially, she mentioned a sore throat, and I noticed her coughing seems more severe, and she’s been a bit feverish. What is the best way to treat her tonsillitis effectively?
Answer
Antibiotic medications are commonly used for treating tonsillitis and can be chosen appropriately. Regional treatment methods can also be combined, such as tonsil crypt irrigation and tonsil injections, which are effective options. If the child has a particularly sore throat, painkillers can be administered. If the child continues to have a fever, parents should give some fever-reducing medication or immediately take the child to the hospital. For those with recurrent episodes of inflammation, surgical treatment may be considered. Pay attention to a light diet during treatment, and consume mainly liquid foods.
