I understand your concern about your son's adenotonsils and ear infection. The tonsils could be causing his ear pain since they are close by in the throat. To help with the pain, you can give him acetaminophen (PCM).

If his symptoms don’t improve or worsen, please see the doctor again for further tests.

You might be suffering from strep throat. Strep throat is caused by bacteria that can make your throat hurt a lot. The white patches you see are a common sign of strep throat.

When a tablet feels stuck in the throat, it is usually in the esophagus instead of the trachea. You would cough a lot if it got into the windpipe.

However, if you experience difficulty breathing or acute pain, get medical treatment as soon as possible.
