In terms of treatment, it is generally recommended to follow the doctor's advice and give the child some anti-inflammatory medication. Additionally, local treatment can be performed, including tonsillar crypt irrigation, intratonsillar medication injection, laser therapy, etc. Pain relievers can also be given based on the child's condition, especially when the throat pain is severe, to help alleviate the discomfort. If fever is present, some fever-reducing medication can be taken. For high fever, it is still advisable to seek medical attention as soon as possible. If the medication is ineffective and the condition recurs frequently, surgical treatment is recommended. During the treatment period, it is also important to maintain dietary hygiene and ensure sufficient rest time.
