Question

Two children at home have developed many white, semi-transparent blisters on their tongues. I would like to know the possible causes.

Answer

Based on the description and the provided photos, it is first necessary to rule out some common pediatric infectious diseases. It is recommended that parents communicate with their children to understand if they are feeling unwell and to bring them to a regular pediatrician’s office for examination as soon as possible to determine the cause and receive symptomatic treatment. In terms of diet, it is important to consume light foods and avoid spicy and irritating foods to prevent exacerbation of the blister symptoms.
