Patient's question:
Our child has been quite healthy since birth, but last week, after spending some time at home with her grandmother, she developed tonsillitis. Despite taking medication and getting injections, it hasn't improved, and I'm getting increasingly anxious. Could you please advise on how to prevent tonsillitis in children?Doctor's answer:
The baby has recurrent high fever, and it is necessary to have blood tests again, including complete blood count, C-reactive protein, and many special pathogen antibodies, such as EB virus antibody, mycoplasma and chlamydia antibodies, etc. Pay attention to symptoms such as a strawberry tongue, conjunctivitis, and swollen lymph nodes. If the temperature is below 38.3°C, oral ibuprofen should be taken to reduce fever. In addition to timely treatment for tonsillitis, friends with the condition should always maintain a positive attitude to face the illness. Only in this way can the patient receive timely and appropriate treatment. At the same time, it is important to pay attention to dietary care, focusing on light foods and avoiding stimulating and cold foods, believing that this will surely drive away tonsillitis.
