What to do about large tonsils in children

For children with large tonsils, the following measures can be used to deal with the situation: First, watch and wait. Some children have large tonsils because of repeated inflammatory hyperplasia of the tonsils. However, children’s tonsils are not red and swollen, but only increase in size, so there is no need for special treatment, just observe and wait. Secondly, children can be given Chinese medicine to clear heat and detoxify the throat. If children have large tonsils, redness, swelling and pain in the tonsils, they should be treated with medicines such as Yinhuang granules and Pudilan oral solution to clear heat and detoxify the throat. Finally, children can be given surgery to remove their tonsils. If a child’s tonsils are not only large, but also have recurrent high fever and septicemia, the child can be treated with tonsillectomy.
