Patient's question:
Our child has been experiencing recurrent tonsillitis for the past few years. The doctor recommended that we have the tonsils removed, but the child's grandmother is against the surgery, and we are at a loss. Could you please tell me: what problems can tonsillitis cause?Doctor's answer:
Do you get paid every month? In fact, tonsillitis depends on whether it's a bacterial or viral infection. Viral infections do not require intravenous fluids; symptomatic treatment is sufficient. If there is a bacterial infection, oral antibiotics can be prescribed. It is recommended to follow a light and easily digestible diet, avoiding spicy and irritating foods. Currently, with redness and swelling, you can take Baitu Granules or Pudilan Oral Liquid and drink plenty of water.Tonsillitis can cause significant disruption to patients. Once symptoms are noticed, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. At the same time, proper self-care should be emphasized—eating more vegetables and fruits while avoiding irritating foods. We hope that tonsillitis patients can receive professional treatment.
