Is redness on the inside of the throat a concern?
Patient: My child just finished amoxicillin for an ear infection, last dose today, i was looking at my throat due to drainage and my 2.5 year old son wanted me to look at his, so i did and he has a lot of red veins on his tonsils/throat, his throat doesn’t hurt and no white spots. Is this normal?? Doctor: Hello,Any throat congestion in children is a concern. However, I assume he does not have any symptom of throat infection like fever or throat pain, and you also mentioned that he is on his last day of antibiotic.I would recommend you to wait and watch for any symptom of infection, no further intervention required as of now.Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.Regards,Dr. Ravi
