Hello, does the child have a fever accompanied by symptoms of inflammation in the respiratory tract? Have you let your child see the right ENT doctor and Pediatrician? If other diseases that also cause fever have been excluded and the correct diagnosis is acute VA, there is no need to worry, if the child is still eating well, the fever is not too high and not too thick, and there are no symptoms of difficulty. breathing, you can contact the ENT doctor for further advice, usually the child may have a fever that lasts 3-5 days before it goes away.
