Question

I recently noticed that my 1.5-year-old child has developed blisters on both cheeks, and I’m not sure how to handle the situation?

Answer

Based on your description, the blisters on both cheeks of your child may be indicative of oral ulcers. Here are some steps you can take for treatment:

  1. Maintain your child’s oral hygiene by regularly cleaning their mouth.
  2. Apply iodine tincture topically to the ulcer site to alleviate pain and promote healing. Additionally, if the condition does not improve or if other symptoms arise, it is advisable to take your child to see a doctor to determine the cause and receive professional treatment advice. During the treatment period, it is also important to pay attention to your child’s diet, avoiding spicy or overly irritating foods, while maintaining a balanced nutritional diet for your child.
