Patient's question:
My baby has been born for more than half a month. She usually eats milk normally, but a few days ago, I accidentally noticed three small white spots growing in parallel outside her lower jaw. They are about the size of a needlepoint. In the past two days, they seem to be getting bigger. Although the baby hasn't been crying or fussing, I can't help but feel something is a bit off, and I'm not sure whether to take her to the hospital.What kind of help do I need: What could be the reason for the appearance of small white spots on the baby's gum?
Doctor's answer:
Baby has been born for more than half a month, and I noticed a few small white spots on the gums. In the past two days, they seem to be growing. The baby is crying and showing symptoms of discomfort. It is considered that the baby has teething. Teething does not require concern. As long as the child is eating normally and not crying, there is no need to worry. It will disappear after a while. I vaguely remember not to clean the baby's mouth specially. The above is the advice for the question "What are the reasons for small white spots on the gums of young children?", hoping it helps you. Wish you health!
