Patient's question:
The baby has enlarged tonsils, and it has been a year. Currently, they have been taking traditional Chinese medicine for 5 weeks with no effect. Is there a problem with this traditional Chinese medicine prescription?! They were seen at a Grade 3A hospital in Xi'an. The baby is almost 4 years old.Doctor's answer:
Children often have physiological enlargement of the tonsils during childhood, which generally gradually expands after the age of ten. If a baby's tonsils are only physiologically enlarged, it may cause the baby to snore during deep sleep. If the child sleeps on their side, the symptoms may improve. If acute tonsillitis occurs again, it is necessary to use intravenous antibiotics in sufficient quantity and duration to completely suppress the inflammation, preventing it from becoming chronic. It is important to maintain good oral hygiene and avoid colds as much as possible.
