My poor 16 years old ds has a horrendous bout of tonsillitis. He has had a sore throat for a week which he has had paracteamol/brufen for. Yesterday DH took him to the doctor and he has been started on antibiotics. Today he sounds muffled when he talks and his neck is more swollen than yesterday. I have another appointment booked for this morning because it is the worst throat I have seen. I feel so bad because he is meant to be going abroad with the school on Thursday and I wish I had had him seen earlier. Parenting doesn't get any easier as they get older
