Treatment history and effectiveness: They have been taking medicine or intravenous fluids, but it's still the same size. What kind of help do you need: Hello, is there anything? Method to cureDoctor's answer:
If the virus is the cause of tonsillitis, medication may not be necessary as the body has the ability to fight the virus. When tonsillitis becomes frequent and children experience difficulty breathing due to the infection, it is recommended to remove the tonsils. However, this should only be considered as a last resort after all other treatments have failed, because the tonsils are a very important part of the human immune system. After tonsillectomy, the child will never experience throat pain or breathing difficulties again, and the surgery will not leave any scars.The day before the surgery, the child should not eat or drink anything. The surgery is very short, lasting only about 20 minutes. Due to anesthesia, the child will not feel anything in their throat during the procedure. Tonsillectomy can be performed using electrocautery or grinding tools.
After the surgery, the child should drink plenty of fluids and eat soft foods. Full recovery from the surgery typically takes about two weeks, after which the child can return to normal physical activities.
