Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have throat infection and fever in an infant. It can lead to upper respiratory tract infection if not treated properly . I would suggest you to apply warm compresses on neck externally . Take paracetamol for fever. Visit pediatrician once and get it examined and start treatment after proper diagnosis. Doctor may prescribe antibiotics like amoxicillin along with anti inflammatory and anti pyretic . Take soft foods to avoid irritation to the throat. Drink lukewarm water throughout the day as it can provide relief. Milk boiled with a pinch of turmeric taken at bedtime for can be relieving as it has antimicrobial properties.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
