Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I have read your description and understand your concern.
Recurrent sore throat and respiratory infection could be caused commonly due to an organism called 'pneumococci'.
Apart from taking other measures for treatment of infections, it would be advisable for him to get vaccinated against pneumococci, which would help to build his immunity and would prevent the episodes of recurrent respiratory infections.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
