Patient's question:
The baby has had pharyngitis for nearly two months. They have been taking medicine intermittently, but it hasn't improved. Today, they have started developing tonsillitis, with severe coughing and phlegm that they can't cough up. Their temperature is 37.18 degrees. Please ask: What should be done next for the tonsillitis according to the doctor?Doctor's answer:
If you have a fever, and the lung breath sounds are coarse upon percussion, it should be pneumonia. It is recommended to give your child antibiotics to reduce inflammation and fever. In daily life, provide your child with more digestible and nutritious food, and reward them with calcium to enhance their immunity and prevent colds.Additionally, for patients with tonsillitis during treatment, their dietary condition and care are also crucial. Patients must pay close attention to their diet and eat more light foods to avoid unnecessary harm. I hope the above answer can help you. Thank you.
