[|Human|] My son has had a cold, symptoms similar to strep with a low grade fever off an on.  yesterdat Dr. said not strep or flu but gave arithromyacin just in case.   Just noticed 3 large red splotches on his tongue and a little ulcer on inside of his lip.  Any thoughts?.
[|AI|]  Hi. Welcome to Chat Doctor . I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns. As per your complaint in case if the splotches and ulcer in tongue have appeared after taking antibiotic Azithromycin it can be due to allergic reaction or side effect with the antibiotic while it can also be due to authors dermatitis secondary to throat infection and inflammation. I would suggest you to consult your treating physician and get evaluated, and he can advise you to change the antibiotic. As of now he can gargle with numbing mouthwash containing Lidocaine. You can also take multivitamins daily... Take anti-inflammatory painkiller like Motrin. Do warm saline gargles and suck ice pops. In case if it is due to side effect of antibiotic anti-allergics like Ben Chat Doctor. . Hope this information helps. Thanks and regards.
