Fox News
A 5-year-old girl who eventually received a diagnosis of strep throat was suffering from the typical symptoms associated with the illness but had one additional ailment that stood out: so-called strawberry tongue.
A throat culture showed positive for group A streptococcus, and her doctors diagnosed her with streptococcal pharyngitis, otherwise known as strep throat. The presence of strawberry tongue made her case stand out, but is not altogether unheard of. It was not clear if the symptom was bothersome for the girl, but strawberry tongue can be painful and irritating, according to Healthline.com.More Related News
