DS's are huge - can see them!

He has most recently had tonsillitis at the beginning of the summer hols and twice last year

Is it normal that I can see them? He isn't bothered although sometimes he says his throat hurts

Is it worth mentioning to the GP?

How old is your ds?

My ds1 are huge, can see them easily.

He struggled with tonsillitis and ear infections frequently between 2-4 years and is waiting to be seen at the ent clinic as he now has glue ear. (all possibly related)

Mention next time you're there. But unless he has lots of problems they won't remove them. And if your ds isn't bothered by them I wouldn't worry.

Thanks for the reply

He's 6

Doesn't seem bothered at the moment but I'll keep an eye on them
