Doctor's answer:

For treatment, first, symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication can be given based on the child's symptoms. Additionally, topical medication sprays or laser therapy can be applied. If the child has a sore throat, pain-relieving medication can be given as needed. For fever symptoms, fever-reducing medication can be taken. In severe cases, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. If there are recurrent inflammation issues, surgical treatment may be considered. After the condition improves, it is recommended to encourage the child to engage in appropriate exercise to boost immunity and prevent recurrence.
