Patient's question:
A few days ago, the baby had repeated fever, and the doctor at the hospital diagnosed it as purulent tonsillitis. The baby received three days of intravenous drip treatment at the hospital, and the fever has subsided. The throat is also almost healed. However, last night while bathing the baby, I noticed that the baby's gums were swollen. What could be the reason for this? Additionally, the baby is not eating much. It only drinks a little milk a day. How can this be resolved?Doctor's answer:
