Doctor's answer:

If a child gets tonsillitis, they can first use some symptomatic antibiotic medication. Local treatments can also be applied, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar medication. In cases of sore throat, pain relievers can be given to the child. If the child has a fever, fever-reducing medications can be administered. In severe cases, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. In addition to these medication treatments, if the child frequently experiences tonsillitis, surgical treatment may also be recommended. During the treatment period, it is important to maintain dietary hygiene and ensure sufficient rest.
