Question
My daughter is 5 years old. She initially felt a sore throat, discomfort when drinking water, and her voice was hoarse. She also had a fever and seemed listless. How should I treat her sore tonsils effectively?
Answer
For effective treatment of tonsillitis, it is recommended to choose anti-inflammatory drugs under a doctor’s guidance and undergo some regional treatments, such as medication rinses, while also paying attention to dietary hygiene. If the child’s sore throat is severe, painkillers can be considered to alleviate symptoms. If the child continues to have a fever, parents can give fever-reducing medication or immediately take the child to the hospital for a consultation. For children with recurrent inflammatory episodes, surgical treatment can be considered. During the treatment period, focus on soft foods to aid in recovery.
