What to do if blisters appear on your child's lips

Children's resistance is relatively low. For most infants and young children, if they are not careful, they will have some physical problems. For example, blisters on the lips are a common symptom. There are many reasons why blisters appear on the lips, such as thrush, mouth ulcers, inflammation or herpes virus infection. Different causes require different treatment methods. Below we will introduce to you the detailed treatment methods for blisters on children’s lips.

1. Oral thrush

If the baby does not feel any pain, then it is likely that it is a common baby disease - thrush. This is because the baby's skin is soaked in milk when feeding, which increases the moisture in the baby's epidermis, causing the epidermis to float and form white blisters.

However, these blisters will gradually disappear and fall off over time, and may grow again. This is not caused by any disease, so parents can rest assured as long as they take good care of their babies.

Treatment method: Mothers can grind nystatin into powder and mix it with cod liver oil drops, and apply it to the blistered areas. Or apply 1% gentian violet for treatment. Generally, apply it after feeding, and you will see the effect soon after applying it for 2 to 3 days.

2. Oral ulcers

If your baby only has blisters and pain on his lips, it may be a mouth ulcer.

Treatment method: At this time, you can use watermelon frost spray. The watermelon frost spray has a tube mouth. Aim at the wound, press the watermelon frost, and spray it on the wound. 3-6 times a day, 0.1~0.3 grams each time, spray on the affected area.

3. Getting angry

If your baby's lips are blistered and painful, and he has difficulty defecating, he may be suffering from a sore throat.

Treatment method: At this time, you can give your baby some fruit foods that clear heat, or take medicine with the doctor's consent, such as Children's Seven Star Tea Granules.

4. Herpes virus infection

If your baby's lips are blistered and painful and he or she has a fever, it is most likely due to herpes virus infection or hand, foot and mouth disease. If accompanied by red spots on the hands and feet, it is most likely hand, foot and mouth disease.

Treatment method: If it is herpes virus infection and hand, foot and mouth disease, you can take oral heat-clearing and fire-reducing medicines, such as Kouyanning, under the professional guidance of a doctor, combined with antiviral drugs and anti-infection treatments.
