Similar but not cxpx: There is a childhood illness that goes around each summer known as hand/foot/mouth disease. The child gets lesions in the mouth like the ones you describe and can also develop rash elsewhere on the body, including the palms of the hands and soles of the feet - hence the name. But you can just get mouth lesions. Caused by a virus similar to varicella, but is not actually varicella (chickenpox).

No. This is very: Unlikely to be a pox lesion. Dental consult is needed. Source of the bump needs to be determined.

The question is....: What your daughter has and not what it could be. If it were possible, does that mean that is what she has? No. Based upon whether or not she has other symptoms, i would suggest that you have her seen by a pediatrician or pcp or a dentist or both. Hope she feels better.
