In terms of treatment, it is generally recommended to follow the doctor's advice and give the child some anti-inflammatory medication. While undergoing systemic treatment, local treatment can also be chosen to enhance the efficacy. Methods include crypt irrigation, direct injection of medication into the tonsils, etc. For sore throat, pain relievers can also be given to the child. If accompanied by low fever, physical cooling methods can be used. If the temperature exceeds 38.5°C, medical attention should be sought promptly. In cases where inflammation recurs frequently, surgical treatment can be considered. During the treatment period, it is also important to maintain dietary hygiene and ensure sufficient rest time.
