Patient's question:

Doctor's answer:

Treating pediatric tonsillitis first, parents can give their child some anti-inflammatory medications. Local treatments can also be used, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar medication injections. If the symptoms are primarily characterized by sore throat, pain-relieving medications can be considered. Additionally, if fever is present, fever-reducing drugs can be taken. For high fever, it is still recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible. If there are multiple acute severe episodes or complications have already developed, tonsillectomy is advised two weeks after the acute inflammation subsides. While undergoing treatment, it is also important to provide the child with a light diet and enhance nutritional supplementation to aid in early recovery.
