Children with sinusitis usually present with symptoms such as elevated body temperature, lethargy, chills, headache, decreased appetite, nasal congestion, and sore throat. As the condition progresses, it may lead to complications such as bronchitis and otitis media; therefore, prompt treatment is necessary. Under a doctor's guidance, appropriate use of antibiotic medications such as amoxicillin granules can effectively inhibit the infection and relieve symptoms.
