The tonsils are an active immune organ. As the tonsils develop and mature, enlarged tonsils in children are often a physiological phenomenon, a manifestation of increasing immune activity, and may also be a manifestation of an allergic reaction. Inflammation begins after the age of two, and the peak period of tonsillitis is 4 to 6 years old.

Tonsillitis generally refers to nonspecific inflammation of the palatine tonsils, which can be divided into acute tonsillitis and chronic tonsillitis. Doctors of all dynasties believed that the external causes of tonsillitis were mainly wind-cold invasion, wind-heat invasion, and improper diet, while the internal causes were mainly organ dysfunction, resulting in phlegm, fire, accumulated heat, water deficiency, fire inflammation, and false yang, which were closely related to pathological changes of the lungs, stomach, and kidneys.

Acute tonsillitis is mostly caused by bacterial or viral infection when the body's resistance is reduced. It has an acute onset and is mainly characterized by sore throat. If it develops into chronic tonsillitis and suppuration, it is often accompanied by high fever.

What should we do if children's tonsils are festering? Acute suppurative tonsillitis in children belongs to the category of "acute suppurative tonsillitis" in traditional Chinese medicine. The throat belongs to the lungs and stomach, so when wind, heat and other toxins invade, the throat is the first to be affected. The cause of the disease may be due to the spread of pathogenic factors inside the body, causing heat to rise; or due to a preference for spicy and dry food, which causes heat to accumulate in the spleen and stomach, and then rise along the meridians and burn the throat, eventually causing heat and toxins to accumulate in the throat, causing stagnation of qi and blood, and burning and rotting of the fascia into pus.

Western medicine mainly uses antibiotics to treat acute tonsillitis, which has serious side effects and is prone to recurrence. Traditional Chinese medicine has a variety of methods to treat acute tonsillitis, the most important of which is syndrome differentiation and treatment. Pediatric massage therapy, acupuncture therapy, and single prescriptions are also effective methods and can be used alone. Local treatment is often used as a complementary therapy.

Studies have shown that in terms of reducing fever, relieving pain, shortening treatment courses and reducing medical costs, Traditional Chinese Medicine pediatric massage therapy is more effective than Western medicine antibiotics, more economical and has no toxic side effects.
