Patient's question:
Our child has been quite healthy since birth. Last week, when our grandmother took them home for a while, their tonsils got inflamed. They've been taking medicine and getting injections, but it hasn't improved at all. I'm almost desperate. Could you please tell me: how should tonsillitis be treated properly?Doctor's answer:
1. The main symptoms of acute tonsillitis in children are fever and sore throat. The treatment primarily involves anti-inflammatory therapy, which usually lasts more than a week. It is recommended that the medication duration should not be too short.2. If there are systemic symptoms such as fever, it is advisable to use appropriate symptomatic antipyretic and blood-activating medications in conjunction with anti-inflammatory treatment, such as Tylenol. In addition to treating tonsillitis, patients are advised to pay attention to their diet and maintain a cheerful mood in daily life to enhance their constitution and speed up recovery.
