What Causes Recurring Tonsillitis Along With Reduced Appetite In A Toddler?

Hi, I m Era, I have a 2yr old son. He has very low appetite and he had experienced tonsillitis twice already in a month. He had been seen by his pedia on his first tonsillitis case but we opted to bring him to the OPD section of a hospital on the second time. Is that normal for a toddler? How can I can increase his appetite because he is already skinny.

I really appreciate your concern, it could be upper respiratory infection and chances of tonsillitis would be very less likely, no need to worry about the appetite because according to need child eats and it would be sufficient for them we can not force them to eat more because of our love and affection if child does not have any related symptoms as long as digestion system is concern then no need to worry about this, hope this information helps.
