HI
Well come to HCM
This is not the infection but this is allergic condition and here the antibiotic wont work, she needs to be given some anti-histamine and the best drug would be Tab Levocetrizine 10 mg three times in day with some lozenges, in case of fever Tab Acetaminophen can be tried, take care.
