Patient's question:
Last Friday night, I had a fever, which lasted intermittently for two days and one night. I went to Beijing Children's Hospital for a check-up.Doctor's answer:
Hello, acute tonsillitis. In the acute phase of chronic tonsillitis, antibiotic treatment should be the primary approach, with medications being administered in sufficient dosage and duration. Some oral traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) herbs that clear heat and resolve toxicity, as well as alleviate symptoms, can be used as supplementary treatment. Regular physical exercise can help enhance physical fitness and reduce the incidence of upper respiratory infections. Appropriate use of drugs such as vitamin C can also aid in treatment.Acute tonsillitis in children poses significant harm to patients. It is recommended that patients seek timely medical attention from a specialized clinic and follow the guidance of a doctor for treatment. Drinking plenty of water and paying attention to dietary issues can be beneficial in daily life. We hope the child can recover as soon as possible!
