Suggest Treatment For Red Bump On Throat After Tonsillectomy
Hey, my son just got his tonsils removed a week and half ago. His recovery has been up and down, he has a bit of bleeding and was demanded to return to the hospital to the ER. After that it has been fine. Today I noticed that he had red bumps in his throat. My concern is if this is normal??
