Hi..
Thanks for the query..

It looks like there are chemical burns in his mouth and throat caused by the chemical present in anti- freeze..

Burning sensation is due to inflammation..

Yes, you should consult an Emergency room or an Oral Physician and get him examined to check for the severity of the burns..

For now if there is burning he can gargle with Lidocaine/Xylocaine containing Mouthwash.
He can also be advised anti inflammatory painkillers like Ibuprofen..
Steroid mouth rinses and lozenges can also help in healing faster..

Hope this helps..

Regards..
