Doctor's answer:

Antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs are currently the main methods and medications for the clinical treatment of pediatric tonsillitis. Parents can choose them based on symptoms. If the child's condition is severe, local treatments such as tonsillar crypt irrigation and intratonsillar medication can also be used. Pain relievers can be given according to the child's condition, especially when the throat pain is intense, to help alleviate discomfort. If the child has a low-grade fever, physical cooling methods can be applied. If the temperature exceeds 38.5°C, medical attention should be sought promptly. If the child frequently experiences tonsillitis, it is recommended to consider surgery at an early stage. During treatment, it is important to provide the child with adequate nutrition, with a diet focusing on light foods, and to ensure sufficient rest to avoid fatigue.
