Offering advice on how to handle a 9-year-old child’s cold and sore throat.

A child with a fever and sore throat may have tonsillitis, and it is recommended to use antibiotics for treatment.

If a child has tonsillitis, symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication can be administered, as well as regional treatments such as tonsil crypt irrigation and intratonsillar injections. If the child has severe sore throat, it is recommended to give some painkillers. If the child keeps running a fever, parents should also give some antipyretic medication, or immediately take the child to the hospital. For those with recurrent episodes of inflammation, surgical treatment may be considered. During the treatment period, it is important to ensure the child gets adequate nutrition, with a diet mainly consisting of light and easy-to-digest foods, and to ensure sufficient rest to avoid fatigue.
