Needs throat culture: The cilicaine sounds like a local anesthetic. Your child needs a throat culture so that a specific diagnosis can be made. Blindly putting a 4 year old on an antibiotic is not good medical practice. With the tremendous emergence of resistant bacteria, your child need a more specific diagnosis.
