thank you for posting your query in healthcaremagic.com.....
well he seems like to be having a sore throat, probably pharyngitis...
do the following-
tab azithromycin 250 1 tab daily for 5 days
gargle with povidone iodine twice daily for 5 days or with warm salt water for 5 days
tab paracetamol 250 1 tab SOS if complaints of fever
give me feedback after 5 days....
if it does not improve in 3 days, visit a PHYSICIAN for examination and further management.....
hope that was helpful....
