Hi! My son, who is 10 years old has been complaining of a sore throat . He had a tonsillectomy @ age 5 . I can t see any white film all I see is redness in the back of the throat. I also noticed his eyes are very red. He has had blood in his mucus and finds it very painful to swallow and talk . He complains also about dry throat
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
It could be the infection which has spread from the throat to eye. I would advise you to get a slit lamp examination done by an ophthalmologist cause bacterial infections in eye could be harmful.
Hope it helps.
