Question
My daughter is 5 years old. She started to feel a sore throat when she spoke, and I noticed that her voice was a bit hoarse during conversation, accompanied by a low-grade fever. How can I treat her tonsillitis effectively?
Answer
If a child has tonsillitis, symptomatic administration of anti-inflammatory medication can be provided. Additionally, regional drug sprays or laser therapy can be considered. If the symptoms are mainly characterized by throat pain, analgesic medications can be administered. If the child continues to have a fever, parents can also give fever-reducing medications or immediately take the child to the hospital. In addition to these drug treatment methods, if the child frequently develops tonsillitis, it is also recommended to consider surgical treatment. At the same time, it is also important to arrange a reasonable diet and living habits for the child to help the disease recover as soon as possible.
