Patient's question:
Recently, my baby has had enlarged tonsils (4 years old) and a fever (temperatures over 39 degrees in the afternoon and at night), with a lot of nasal discharge, snoring while sleeping, and difficulty breathing.Doctor's answer:
A sore throat is a common symptom in children aged 5 to 12. Acute and chronic tonsillitis and pharyngitis are the main diseases that cause sore throats, with streptococcus and staphylococcus being important pathogens.Children's tonsillitis has a significant impact on patients, so it is recommended that patients seek timely treatment from a specialist under the guidance of a doctor. Daily activities can be carried out appropriately, but attention should be paid to preventing "internal heat" (excess heat in the body). We hope the child can recover as soon as possible!
