Treatment Options for Pediatric Tonsillitis

Currently, in clinical treatment of pediatric tonsillitis, antibiotics are primarily used. Medications can be selected based on bacterial culture and are effective. Regional treatments, such as tonsil crypt irrigation and intratonsillar injections, can also be considered. For symptoms mainly characterized by throat pain, painkillers may be considered. Some children may also have a fever, in which case oral antipyretics can be administered. If symptoms do not subside, it is essential to seek medical attention. In addition to medication, if a child frequently experiences inflammation, parents may consult with a doctor to consider surgical treatment. During the treatment period, it is important to ensure the child receives adequate nutrition, with a diet mainly consisting of light and easy-to-digest foods. Rest and avoiding fatigue should also be prioritized.
