I am just wondering if you could help me to know what s going on with him please. Thank you.c
Hello dear, Welcome to HCM. It seems your son has mixed infection.I prescribe you medicine for tonsillitis and stomatitis: -Lozenges:Sualin,Strepsils help reducing inflammation. -Avoid sour cold drinks -Nasal decongestant spray -Cetrizine 0.25mg/kg/dose every 12 hours for 3 days. -Apply Pansoral for her tonsills -Do compress with Camphora for her throat(crash tablets with water). -If her tongue is white you can give to her antifungal Fluconazole 50 mg for resolve. -Hot drinks with ginger tea,turmeric powder,lemon Recovery soon.
