What medicine is effective for tonsillitis?

Patient's question:

Our child was born prematurely and has always had a weak constitution. In kindergarten, they are particularly prone to catching colds, which leads to recurrent tonsillitis. We are concerned about the impact this has on their health. Could you please advise: What medications are most effective for tonsillitis?

Doctor's answer:

Chronic tonsillitis: Treatment does not require the use of antibiotics. It is primarily based on traditional Chinese medicine for clearing heat and detoxifying, which can be combined with atomization therapy and rinsing the face with salt water. If tonsillitis recurs frequently, obstructing breathing and causing dry throat, it should be removed promptly to prevent serious complications. For patients with severe tonsillitis, it is recommended to seek medical attention immediately and follow the doctor's advice for prompt treatment. Avoid using medication blindly to prevent worsening the condition. Thank you.
