Two and a half months old baby has white, milk-like substances on the tongue, is it thrush?

Patient's question:

For more than two months, the baby has been crying when eating milk this afternoon. When picked up to walk around, he fell asleep after a short while. Upon examining the tongue, there were white milk-like stains, which were difficult to remove with a cotton swab. I would like to ask if it could be thrush?

Doctor's answer:

How long has this been going on with you? Could you send me an oral photo for a look? It is recommended that you always maintain good oral hygiene. After meals, use a cotton swab dipped in light salt water to clean the inside of your mouth. You can wait and see for a while! The above advice is for the question "Is the white, milk-like substance on a two-month-old baby's tongue thrush?" I hope it helps you. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery!
