Hi, I am Dr. Atul Kumar Nimawat MS ENT. Nature of your illnesses Allergic rhinitis is not contagious. Pharyngitis/tonsillitis may be viral or bacterial in origin. Transmission typically requires close, repeated contact with respiratory droplets or secretions. Risk of transmission from a single brief contact A one-time brief exposure (finger in mouth, then touching baby’s tongue) carries very low risk. Most pathogens need a sufficient inoculum and generally spread via coughing, sneezing, sharing utensils, or prolonged close contact. Recommended precautions Hand hygiene: Wash your hands thoroughly before handling your baby. Mask use: Wear a surgical mask while symptomatic to reduce droplet spread. Avoid direct oral contact: Refrain from activities like “kiss on the lips” or letting the child share eating utensils.

Very minimal risk. Nothing to worry

Very minimal risk my frd

Yes. There is chance but low risk.

If the infection is active then there are chances of transmission. If you have a history of recurrent infections but at present not any ongoing infection, then chances are less for transmission.
