What causes the tonsils to turn red

Patient's question:

I am five years old. A few months ago, my throat turned red when I had a cold. I visited a traditional Chinese medicine doctor and took Western medicine, but it hasn't improved. It's still red, though it doesn't seem too swollen. What could be the reason? Are there any more effective treatment methods?

Doctor's answer:

There is a red and swollen throat, which indicates some tonsillitis. You need to have a timely and thorough examination and treatment for inflammation. Such conditions are prone to recurring colds and fever. Swelling of degree II or higher can be treated surgically. After the surgery, you can take some medications to boost your immunity, and at the same time, you can consume some Yinhuang lozenges. The above is the advice for the question "Why is the tonsil still red after so long?" I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
