Hello,
Welcome to HCM and thank you for the query.
The information you have provided is not sufficient to provide an accurate diagnosis. If the blood tests are normal, it may be a viral infection. Some viral infections can cause red tongue or may be related to an adverse effect of antibiotics if he was on them. If you can upload a photo of the lesion, I can give a better opinion.
Wish your brother a quick recovery.
If you have more queries, I am available.
