No voice

[Pomponiers]

If your child had no voice whatsoever, and hadn’t for a couple of days (today is day 2) would you book a doctors appointment? It is very sore and be has had a temperature, which has come down with calpol. Not sure if I leave it whether I will regret not booking one with the weekend looming.

I hope you booked an appointment op. Something like this always needs checking out, probably laryngitis but always best to be on the safe side with kids. Is he eating an drinking, well in himself?

Thanks for replying. Eaten very minimal amounts, drinking small amounts. The surgery was closed when I tried to call apart from for medical emergencies 🤷‍♀️. Will see how we go overnight.

Ring 111 for an appointment out of hours, particularly about a dc unable to speak. Try some humidity, a steamy bathroom see if that helps and lots of fluids.

Thank you. I did ring 111, 18 hours later we are still waiting for a call back. Ni improvement.

That's terrible they usually ring back within a certain time frame don't they. Up to you and I feel like I'm nagging but if you have a dc with such severe inflammation they can't speak I'd have rang 111 back.
