Pediatrician,  's  Response
Hi dear,
I understand your concern. White points on the tonsils, fever,enlarged lymphatic nodes are signs of acute bacterial tonsillitis. I recommend to go on antibiotic therapy:
-Augmenting(Amoxiclav) 250 mg 3 times a day for 7 days.
-Vizylac 1 capsule daily for 1 month.
-Strepsils 1 tablet 4 times
- Salty and Chlorhexidine gurgling 4 times a day.
-Zincovit 5 ml daily for 1 month.
-Paracetamol 15 mg/kg/dose
Wishing your baby speedy recovery.
