Patient's question:
The baby has had a fever for two days, a runny nose, cough, phlegm, nausea, and swollen small lumps. Upon closer look, there's only one lump. After taking Motrin, the fever subsided. Yinhuang Granules helped too; the fever didn't return tonight because I didn't bring him to the hospital and gave him Yinhuang Granules and Motrin. His breathing seems a bit rapid. Should I give him something? Do I need to take him to the hospital? Will the swelling improve? Will this happen again in the future? The small lumps won't go down?Doctor's answer:
According to your description of your child's condition, your child has tonsillitis and can take anti-inflammatory medication for treatment. My suggestion is that you can take heat-clearing and detoxifying drugs, such as Lanqin Oral Liquid or anti-inflammatory oral liquid. These are traditional Chinese medicines and have a good effect. Yes, you can start by taking the medication and carefully observe the results. If the effect is not good, you can receive intravenous treatment. The above is my suggestion for this issue. I hope it helps you, and wish you a speedy recovery!
