Tonsillitis : First, it is quite unusual for an 11 month old to have tonsillitis, usually affects kids around the age of 3 and up more often . It is not common for the antibiotic to cause breathing problems. You should contact the prescribing doctor about this. Maybe there is another cause for the breathing trouble. You need to get the child seen again possibly by a pediatric ent.
