Hi doc good evening. This is Siva Ranjani, my daughter aged 20 months has probably swollen adenoids, as she breaths through mouth and blocked nose, ear infection and discharge from right ear. Cann't eat well because breathing through mouth. She has repeated ear infection, fever and soar thoat. Repeatedly antiboitics (amoxicillin) given are not helping. What is the best course of treatment for my daughter ?
