Brief Answer:
Tonsillitis

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Welcome to HCM.
Can understand your concerns.

I have seen the picture that you have attached.
From the picture and symptoms of cold and throat pain suggests that your child has got tonsillitis.

If I were your treating doctor, i would have given cough syrup like chericof or cheston and an antibiotic like cedpodoxime.

However, since medicines in children are given according to weight, i suggest you to meet the local doctor for needful.

I hope this will help you.
Wishing your child good health.
Take care.
