My 2-year-old son seems to have a sore throat. What can I do to help him feel better and when should I consult a doctor?

If your 2-year-old is experiencing throat pain, you can try cleaning their nose with saline solution if there is congestion. Offering cold foods and spoonfuls of honey may also help. If the pain is severe, you can give them acetaminophen or ibuprofen as a pain reliever, especially before bedtime. It's important to consult a doctor if the pain persists or worsens.
