DD had little white blisters on her tongue and it was clearly bothering her. She's 20 months.
Then DS developed the same little blisters. They've nearly gone now but he's left with white stuff in the middle of his tongue and he says it hurts to eat. I don't know it's burning or stinging or what - I can't get that differentiation from a 3 year old.
Any ideas what it could be? We're away from home at the moment so away from GP. I don't think it's an A&E job because he's bright and perky unless he's having a meal or a drink.
Someone said hand, foot and mouth disease? But it seems to be his tongue that's affected. Poor lad.
