Question 1

my daughter has sores/blisters on tongue, pallet,inside of cheek.what is this and what can be done to cure it?

Accepted Answer

Hard to be sure: These are usually virus related and self heal over time. Management focuses on maintaining fluid intake, nutrition and pain control. Chilled fluids numb the pain so things like ice chips, popsicles, chilled applesauce are good ways to get fluids. Diphenhydramine (Benadryl) can be mixed with milk of magnesia and taken as a swish/swallow coating for the sores. If she gets dehydrated have her seen.

Question 7

how to remove blisters on your tongue?

Accepted Answer

Self limiting: If by blisters you mean ulcerations , then they will go away on there own, as they are usually caused by trauma. Once the offender is removed...Like smoothing or filling a fractured tooth, the ulceration heals itself. If it was from a bite or a scratch then it should heal on its own. Warm salt water is helpful to expedite healing. Also a dental diode laser works well.

Question 9

my wife has a hard blister on her tongue the size of a dime. what can that be?

Accepted Answer

Tongue mass: A blister, by definition, is a fluid filled sac and should not be hard.  If your wife has a hard "lesion" on her tongue, she should have that evaluated by an ENT specialist to help figure out what it is.  This may require just looking, but it might need to be biopsied.  Any new mass should be evaluated as soon as you are able.  Best of luck!

Question 10

does strep cause blisters on your tongue?

Accepted Answer

No: Not strep. Blisters are often a symptom of a viral infection. If they are present on the palms and soles as well, then this could be Hand, Foot and Mouth disease (sounds bad, but isn't). If the sores are painful, try giving popsicles and tylenol (acetaminophen). The main concern is keeping the child hydrated if she doesn't want to eat or drink.
