Patient's question:

Starting from the afternoon, the child said their throat was sore. By the evening, they started having muscle cramps and drooling green saliva. When they went to the hospital, it was said that blisters had formed in their throat. Some medicine was prescribed, but after taking it, they vomited it out. Urgent!

Doctor's answer:

The condition you described is primarily considered to be caused by the possibility of pediatric glossitis or oral inflammation, leading to these symptoms. For such issues, it is recommended to actively apply iodine glycerin externally for treatment and observation. Additionally, it is important to have proper dental examinations. There are many triggers for pediatric digestive diseases. If the child is diagnosed with a pediatric digestive disorder, parents need to cooperate with the doctor in active treatment, including gastric decompression, and develop good hygiene habits. Parents should be mindful not to develop picky eating habits in their children and ensure a balanced diet.
