My son is 7. He has strep multiple times a year and extra large tonsils that need to come out. He has chronic stomache aches lately. And just today i noticed that the palms of his hands and the tips of 2 of his fingers that the skin has peeled off (a thick layer leaving it pink).

For streptococcal infection this time treatment can be given with suitable antibiotic of penicillin group

Salt water gargle done three times a day
