Suggest Remedy For Frequent Sore Throat
My daughter 7.5 yrs old, wt: 26 Kgs, Ht 4' 3" frequently has sore throat- high fever lasting 3-4 days. She has very large tonsils from birth. Her thyroid tests are all normal. Her doc generally gives her azithral 100. Can you help me as I am not comfortable administering her with antibiocits frequently.

hello and welcome to health care magic,
You have rightly opined that frequent medications are not good for anyone especially antibiotics.
In your daughters case you can just get a tonsillectomy done and she will definitely have a better quality of life. Its a fairly simple day care procedure in good hands and the relief is immense. I have done more than three thousand and you can get back to me on this.
