Is Large Tonsils A Concern?

My Son has a deviated uvula and tonsils are large not inflamed just big.My Son is 5 years old and i only noticed it a few weeks ago as he is a very fussy eater and complains alot about food hurting his mouth so we have had him back and forth to doctors for 3 and a half years.He does have some issues with his speech also.

Hi,

I suggest you give him Syrup Paracetamol 2ml (250mg/ml) for temporary pain relief.

I suggest you consult an ENT surgeon for antibiotic prescription, Basic Throat examination and further treatment.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
