| As with coughs and colds,
the majority of sore throats are caused
by a virus, and therefore antibiotics
will not help.
To alleviate the pain give your
children Paracetamol or Cocodamol at the recommended
doses and time intervals. Children over the age of
twelve will find gargling with soluble Aspirin helpful,
but children under 12 must not be given Aspirin. |
