What Causes Sore Throat With Tiny Red Spots?

My 4 year old daughter has a low grade fever on and off for 2 days, sore throat, red tonsils and tiny red spots on her tongue. She complains of her tongue and throat hurting. Should I take her to the doctor? I dont see any white spots on her tonsils or tongue.

Hello,

I read carefully your query and understand your concern.

The symptoms seem to be related to a strep throat.
I suggest to see a pediatrician to confirm the diagnosis.
Meanwhile,I suggest using anti inflammatory medications such as Tylenol to relieve the symptoms.
I also suggest to gargle with salty water.

Hope my answer was helpful.

If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.

Kind regards!
