Patient's question:
The child has tonsillitis and often has high fever. Can the tonsils be surgically removed? The doctors at the hospital said they need to wait until the child is two and a half years old for the surgery. I want to know if the surgery can be done at one year old.Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you mentioned, considering the baby's age, it is recommended that you first consider aggressive treatment based on the baby's condition. Since the baby is quite young, it is advised not to consider surgical removal for the time being. You can pay more attention to the baby's daily diet and lifestyle adjustments. If necessary, consider traditional Chinese medicine treatment. Pay attention to light and easily digestible supplementary foods, and avoid spicy and irritating foods as well as puffed foods to ensure smooth bowel movements.
