sounds like an ulcer.

How old is she?

Bonjela helps.

I use Adcortyl in Orabase but don't think it's for children to use. Not sure.

DD2 had similar.Looked like i could almost squeeze it !(oooo love squeezy spots too ).Anyhow, used bonjela which i put on liberally myself and salt mouth wash regularly.Your daughter should be old enough for a salt mouth wash, or i find the corsydil(?sp ) good but she hated the taste and its not cheap.Was really surprised how quickly it went so hope your dd is the same.
