Acute suppurative tonsillitis is primarily caused by acute bacterial infection, which may cause recurrent fever and sore throat. Initially, a routine blood test is required to determine the extent of the inflammatory response. If the inflammation is severe, it is necessary to consider timely antibiotic treatment for infection, with commonly used antibiotics being cephalosporins or penicillins. If the body temperature exceeds 38.5℃, antipyretic medication should also be considered. Generally, the treatment period is about one week, and it is necessary to regularly recheck the routine blood test and perform laryngoscopic examinations to dynamically assess the recovery of the condition.
