Patient's question:
My newborn baby's little tongue tip is a bit yellow. I wonder why this is happening, I'm very worriedDoctor's answer:
Hello, this situation with the baby might also be caused by poor hygiene or the mother eating spicy foods. If it doesn't affect the baby's ability to breastfeed, and the baby is in good spirits and eating well, generally no treatment is needed. Keeping the baby's mouth dry and clean can be achieved by using physiological saline to clean the mouth daily. It usually takes about two to three days to gradually improve, and it is absolutely crucial not to squeeze it to avoid infection.
