Hi - 10 yr old son had high temp, flushed face and cough over weekend and what appears to be a strawberry tongue. He’s ok now but not sure if he’s contagious? Was it likely to have been strep even though he didn’t have a sore throat? I don’t really want to give him a course of anti b as he’s fine, but traveling to see Grandma and young cousins over Christmas and don’t want to infect anyone! Thoughts please…tongue was whitish with red bumpy tip…now it’s less white but still red and bumpy at the end like it’s been burnt! Thanks in advance.
