A member asked:

My 10yr old for the past to days is complaining that food taste weird. hes always hungry and for him to not be eating is alarming. sore throat? he has like 6 teeth coming in right now can he be teething? can big kids teeth? should we go to doc?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Confusing post: One thing a 10 yo can do is answer questions.Does he say his teeth hurt ? Gum disease could make things taste odd as can a sinus infection or other problem. Some kids eat in spurts matching their variable growth spurts. I don''t accept the teething issue at that age if he doesn't complain. If any of this has changes his enjoyment of regular school/play have him seen.
