I've been having trouble with my nose getting blocked every morning, and it's leading to all this sneezing. I've also got a dry cough, and it's been keeping me from sleeping well early in the morning. What could be causing this, and what can I do about it?

My 9-year-old has been struggling with tonsillitis for the past week and it's been really tough. Can you tell me more about what the surgery involves for kids this age? I'm worried about how it works and what recovery looks like for them.

It's tough to see your child struggling, but tonsillitis usually resolves on its own within a week or two, especially if it's viral. If your child's condition doesn't improve or if they have any concerning symptoms (like difficulty breathing or swallowing), it's best to consult a doctor
