[|Human|] Hi, My 7 yr old son has very swollen tonsils and theyre very red/raw looking. They also appear to have puss pockets on them. He has no fever and no other symptoms other than his voice sounding muffled when he talks. Other than that he feels perfectly fine. Do you think I should worry?
[|AI|]  Hi. Thanks for the query. As per your complaint it seems that your son is suffering from throat infection leading to Pharyngitis and Pustular Tonsillitis and as the voice is muffled it seems to be inflammation of voice box leading to Laryngitis. The most common cause for it is bacterial throat infection, however it can also be due to viral infection. As there are pus pockets on tonsils it is due to bacterial infection. Consult a Pediatrician and get him evaluated and a thorough clinical evaluation and investigations like throat swab culture can help in diagnosis. He can be advised a course of antibiotics along with pain relievers like Ibuprofen or Acetaminophen. Feed him with plenty of warm fluids and a soft and semi-solid diet. Give him sufficient rest and keep him HY Chat Doctor. . Do cool compresses over the glands. Hope this helps. Regards.
