A member asked:

My 4year old dauter has inflame tonsil would a wood stover bother her?

Throat pain: from inflamed tonsils can be lessened with use of over the counter pain and fever reducers. Although smoke from a wood burning stove has the potential to be irritating, it would likely cause less discomfort than being cold! Sips of warm liquids can help reduce irritation if need be.

Restate question: Not clear what your question is. A wood stove would not injure her. Does she have fever, sore throat, recent cold symptoms. Anyone else sick? If you believe your daughter's tonsil is inflamed and she doesn't impove in 48 hours, then she should be evaluated. Hope that helps.
