Contact your GP

Looks like thrush to me, i would definitely get in touch with the GP ASAP as that will be really uncomfortable no doubt, bless him :)

Obviously rining gp as soon as it opens. Would thrush only stay in one place there's no other white spots anywhere else in his mouth

Definitely ring the GP and you need treatment too if so. It's agony if it embeds in your boobs, like needles. They should be able to triage you over the phone and send a script to the pharmacy. Worth asking if he needs cream for his bum to cover that eventuality too as it tends to be in both places. Poor little guy.

Yeah it can do. I can see his tongue looks white/yellow, that's another sign of thrush

Gp thinks it tonsillitis/strep throat picking antibiotics up in afternoon. Gp didn't see him or even want me to email photo. Will keep an eye
