Thrush : It is not clear but i believe you are describing oral thrush. Thrush is an infection of the mouth caused by the candida fungus, also known as yeast. Candida infection is not limited to the mouth; it can occur in other parts of the body as well, causing diaper rash in infants or vaginal yeast infections in women. Treatment is anti fungal medication . See your pediatric doctor or a dentist for rx.
