I wonder if you could answer what kind of sickness does my son have?
Hello dear, As per your symptoms, your child probably had throat infection(pharyngitis) with associated ear infection. Chil Chat Doctor. We commonly call it tonsils tummy. In high grade fever the child can get sick enough to look pale when he is not and the grain of nails can be due to improper oxygenation. You should consult your doctor for proper evaluation, physical examination and management. I would recommend oral antibiotics like amoxicillin and antipyretic like paracetamol. Hope it will help. Stay blessed
