Question
A female infant, 1 month old, is experiencing throat pain and difficulty swallowing, accompanied by a low fever. How should pediatric tonsillitis with low fever be treated?
Answer
Antibiotics are a common treatment for tonsillitis, and regional therapies such as tonsil irrigation or injections can also be used. For severe throat pain, painkillers can be administered, and body temperature should be monitored. If it exceeds 38.5°C, immediate medical attention is required. If there are recurrent episodes or complications, it is recommended to perform tonsillectomy after the inflammation subsides. Pay attention to health maintenance and adequate rest during treatment.
