Patient: my son is 1 next month. He has a large red sore on the roof of his mouth no white or yellow though. he seems slightly off his food but will eat something if persuaded enough. i'm not sure to the cause of this or whether to see my doctor or allow the red spot to heal on its own Doctor: Hi,Thank you for asking question on health care magic.Probably he injured himself by putting a spoon or accidental injury when you are feeding.Mouth ulcers heal rapidly.Only hot milk or food, spicy food he can not tolerate.Give cold and sweetened food or drink.You may locally apply Zytee liquid or dentogel once or twice daily.If it does not heal within a week you contact your doctor.Hope this answer will serve your purposePlease feel free to ask any more queries if requiredTake careDr.M.V.Subrahmanyam MD;DCHAssociate professor of pediatrics
