My 4 yr. old s tonsils are extremely enlarged (they are touching) with bright red massive over-sized blood vessels running over them. He has been complaining his throat hurting for months but since they are not infected, his Dr. says there is not much we can do about them. Now, he has an ear infection - his 1st ever. The is the 1st time he has ever been on antibiotics. His nasal passages are also swollen and he has been using Nasonex with little relief....and has been diagnosed with speech delay and has begun speech therapy. I have been told these symptoms are all unrelated. My instincts tell me otherwise.
