anonymously, about a boy, 1 year old

The child is 1.5 years old, according to the analysis of the inflammatory process. Now the temperature is 37.7 and the throat is reddish. Did you get sick a week ago, tell me, should I drink an antibiotic?

Hello! You should contact your local pediatrician as soon as possible. The fact that your child's blood test shows signs of inflammation does not indicate what caused the inflammation. If it is a viral infection, then antibiotics will not help 100%. If your child's temperature is higher than 37.8 °, call an ambulance.
