Patient's question:
My baby was delivered via C-section on September 25th. The amniotic fluid broke, and she was born 40 days premature, weighing 4.8 pounds. She stayed in the incubator for nine days and was discharged on October 3rd. On the 6th, a small white blister appeared on her upper lip, which burst after two days. When the baby woke up, her upper and lower lips were covered with small white blisters.Doctor's answer:
You can use 2%-4% sodium bicarbonate (available at pharmacies) to wipe your mouth. Be gentle when wiping, then apply 1% gentian violet to the affected area 1-2 times a day. Take nystatin and mix it with sodium bicarbonate, then apply it to the affected area. It's best to add brown sugar! Prevent recurrence multiple times a day! If it still doesn't improve, then you should use fluconazole, but do not take it orally. Mix one tablet of fluconazole with 2%-4% sodium bicarbonate to form 3 ml of an external solution! You can also use watermelon frost spray and take oral zinc gluconate. This will be good for a week.
