9 month old scratched the roof of his mouth

My baby’s currently teething and he’s had a lot of teething pain 😔 his hands are always in his mouth and he managed to somehow scratch the roof of his mouth and it was bleeding a little bit (I cut his nails 2 days ago!). It’ll get better by itself and soon right?! Very worried FTM here! Should I put something on it?

Mouths tend to heal quite quickly! I wouldn't worry about it tbh - does he drink water? That will keep it clean and flush out any food from it, along with his milk. In a few days it will have healed up!

I remember when mine was maybe a few months old he bashed his frenulum - blood everywhere! He was grumpy on his bottle for a couple of days but it healed quickly!
