Methods include crypt irrigation, direct injection of medication into the tonsils, etc. If the child has a sore throat, appropriate analgesics can be given. Additionally, if fever is present, antipyretic drugs can be taken. For high fever, it is still recommended to seek medical attention promptly. Tonsillitis is characterized by recurrent episodes. If similar symptoms persist, surgery can be considered after the inflammation is controlled. During treatment, it is important to ensure the child stays warm and avoid further symptoms by preventing colds.
