Mouth ulcers/blisters in toddler

3 replies

passthesaltplease · 27/09/2014 14:50

My DD (2 yrs 8 mths) has got several small blistery/ulcery things in her mouth - 6 or 7 that I can see. I had a Google and a lot came up about HFM but she's not had a fever, isn't otherwise unwell, and says they don't hurt. She's eating fine etc. Read about vit C deficiency but she has orange juice and strawberries most days so I doubt it's that.

Any ideas?

DD had HFM with only the mouth bit, but they did hurt.

Nope and I went to a Dr recently cos DS had 8 under his tongue, 2 on the side and 4 others on the inside of his cheeks!

Dr thought it might be cos he's been sick recently (reflux) Or teething. She gave us various medecines but DS refused all except calpol which I gave just before he ate as he wasnt eating much due to the pain.

They were all gone within a week. I also used bonjela but not sure if that helped.

Thanks. I've gone out and got some Junior Bonjela and put some on. She genuinely doesn't seem bothered by them at the moment so I'll keep an eye on it for the next day or so and see what happens.
