Patient's question:
He has already started attending kindergarten this year. A few days ago, when he went back, he didn't have much appetite and didn't want to eat anything. However, he kept drinking a lot of water. On the third day, I asked if he wasn't feeling well, and he said his throat felt a bit uncomfortable. I took him to see a doctor, who said it was tonsil hypertrophy. What kind of assistance is needed: How should treatment be implemented when a child suffers from tonsil hypertrophy?Doctor's answer:
Okay, here is the translation following your instructions:Say, tonsillar fibrosis often occurs again after acute and chronic tonsillitis, and can also coexist with chronic pharyngitis. Most tonsillar fibrosis is benign, but due to glandular swelling, it often interferes with breathing and deep sleep. Patients experience dry mouth during the day, throat itching, and a foreign body sensation; at night, they snore, choke, have breathing pauses, and subsequently develop headaches. The majority can be relieved by taking anti-inflammatory medication. For cases that persist for a long time, laser surgical treatment can be adopted. Tonsillar hyperplasia can also be treated with Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). For internal treatment, methods include clearing heat, detoxifying, cooling blood, and dispersing stagnation/nodules.
