Doctor's answer:

In terms of treatment, it is generally recommended to follow the doctor's advice and give the child some anti-inflammatory medication. Local medication can also be used, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar medication. If the child's sore throat symptoms are particularly severe, it is advisable to use some analgesics to relieve the symptoms. If there is a fever, the method of cooling down should be chosen based on the body temperature. Below 38.5 degrees Celsius, physical cooling methods can be used; if it is above 38.5 degrees Celsius, oral fever-reducing medication can be taken. If there is a history of recurrent inflammation, surgical treatment can be considered. Pay attention to a light diet during daily life, and during the treatment period, a liquid diet should be the main focus.
