Patient's question:
My child just started kindergarten and got infected with a cold, which led to tonsillitis. It's been half a month, and it hasn't improved much. Now, the child isn't eating well, and they're getting thinner by the day. I feel so heartbroken. Could you please advise on how to safely treat tonsillitis in young children?Doctor's answer:
Hello, your baby has tonsillitis and recurrent fever. Blood tests show a bacterial infection. The usual course of the illness is about seven to ten days.Hello, based on your baby's condition, we recommend giving them pediatric paracetamol and pseudoephedrine granules, cephalexin granules, and Shuanghuanglian oral liquid, among others. Also, make sure to give your baby plenty of fluids.
There are many treatments for tonsillitis, but since symptoms vary, the diagnostic methods used may differ. Therefore, it's important for the patient to be diagnosed as soon as possible so that the right treatment can be administered.
