General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi Thanks for your query to HCM.
Treatment for your problem
1- In my opinion Diagnosis is - j.D. lymphadenitis - with Acute on Chronic Tonsillitis.
2- I would advise- good diet, vit c, hpbd diet and unhindered growth of your son by timely antibiotic tretment when it recurrs.
3- Surgeons consultation- who would do FNAC Biopsy of JD adenitis to rule out TB as the cause for its recurrence and chronicity after antibiotics treatment.
4-If its not TB - Tonsillectomy - by ENT Surgeon-to get rid of infected to sills would help your son.
5- If Its TB adenitis, Then Anti tb treats for 12 mths-by paediatrician-would help him to recover fast. Hope this would help you to plan a treatment with specialist Surgeon, ENT Surgeon with paediatrician.
Wish you a fast recovery.
Wellcome to HCM for more help.Have a Good Day.
