Common Questions and Answers about Tongue lesions infants

tongue

Avatar m tn ) If u are experiencing whitish, velvety lesions in the mouth and on the tongue and if underneath the whitish material, there is red tissue that bleeds easily, then u are suffering from thrush. To my knowledge it is not considered an std. It's caused by forms of a fungus called Candida. A small amount of this fungus lives in your mouth most of the time. It is usually kept in check by your immune system.
Avatar f tn So I have had a really bad throat, tonsillitis and tonsil stones all the time since I got back from volunteering in a hospital in Africa. This morning I woke up with a really severe sore throat, hoarse voice and just generally feverish. This evening I asked someone to check the redness of my throat, and when she did, she noticed something she described as a "second tongue". I googled it (sorry) and images of epiglotitus came up that looked exactly like mine.
Avatar m tn Yea...I mean, it's only my tongue that's the problem...some days my tongue looks dry...and the lesions seem to be going down..and then few days down the road they come back. The only reason I think the herpes is related to the lesions in my mouth is because I didn't have this problem before I need to go and have another test. Thanks everyone.
Avatar m tn Hello, Urticaria pigmentosa is usually found in infants but it may affect adults also and produces lesions and intense itching. If you rub the lesions, hives may develop.
Avatar m tn It grew and spread to the other side of the tongue. It is always painless, unless picked at. The lesions present as flattened white wrinkly patches, that can be rubber off with a paper towel exposing a red base underneath, that sometimes bleeds. I am quite certain it is not thrush, as my mother is a pediatric nurse practitioner and assures me it couldn't be this. I have not been on any antibiotics for years and don't have a problem with being sick in general.
Avatar n tn she has started babbling in our mother tongue but will her speech be delayed as people at day care dont speak our mother tongue or dont even understand it/
Avatar n tn because I have no visible lesions or anything. However; my lips and tongue are burning...and I know that if u do have symptoms, then the blood test will be accurate more likely. Is the tongue and lips burning/stinging/tingling enough of a symptom for the results to be accurate?
Avatar n tn For more than 20 years, been getting these warts or lesions that come and go in my mouth. Started after an oral encounter ~ 1995. No sexual intercourse, but kissing that likely transmitted something to me since soon after, developed a flesh colored lump with a white top on the underside of my tongue. This lump wasn't too large, but definitely noticeable. I kept rubbing it against my bottom teeth and it eventually broke open and bleed a bit, but eventually went away.

Avatar m tn http://www.studydroid.com/imageCards/0b/87/card-11803657-front.jpg I was treated with Nystatin but it did not cure me. A week later, my tongue looked better, but still not cured. The night sweats went away after the third week but I began to experience fatigue and my CBC results began to show irregularities (please see chart): http://www.medhelp.org/user_photos/show/265672 After six weeks, my tongue is still tingling and numb and ulcerated.

Avatar f tn My main concern and question is would geograohic tongue only appear on this one spot on the tongue? The lesions do change in size and shape and they are red in the center with the whitish yellow border. They do seem to grow every day, then disappear only to reappear the very next day on the same spot and location on his tongue. I am a little anxious that this could be something more worrisome like cancer. Is this normal behavior for gt to only pop up in one area of the tongue?
Avatar m tn Turns out to be geographic tongue, the recurring lesions are pink with yellowish to white borders and recur in different places on the the tongue. This is a harmless condition, but is very alarming to look at. Also there is no cure for this condition. I think I have been cursed.
Avatar f tn m not exactly sure of how it came about or how common it is in infants but I know that if you go to a health food store and buy probiotics for infants, it usually helps with thrush. I've had thrush in my mouth as a teenager and I can tell you it was the WORST!! It's soo painful, so if your baby is very uncomfortable then you know why. I hope it clears up fast! If you are breastfeeding, I think that helps it go away quicker too!
Avatar m tn hello, I feel sometimes my tongue is getting bigger, and it pushes my teeth so my tongue getting shape inside of my teeth, it gives pain and in afew days some mouth lesions occurs, what can I use for this ?
338416 tn?1420045702 t reveal any spinal lesions, though my neurological exam says I have lesions on my spine (according to my neuro). He says they're just too small to see, and he doesn't care how infinitesimally small they are, they're still there. I wonder if they'll grow over time and become more visible? Great pics, Jen!
Avatar n tn About 6 days after having sex with him I developed a tongue trush and no other symtoms I have the trush for 2 weeks now and can seem to nock it maybe it becuase I am a bit stressed out. Any suggestions would be great. Also what is the odds if he did have hiv of catching I know it is like 1000/1 for a man does anyone know what it is for a woman and in my case where he did not ejaculate in me.
Avatar m tn Subsequently, I have had two severe outbreaks with sores all in my mouth, tongue, cheeks, and a few lesions in the genital area (first time for this ever). Severe enough that I could not eat for 3 days. Doctor suggested upping dose for valtrex from 1 g to 3 g for 7 days. I had blood panels done the only noticeable thing was a pretty low Vitamin D level (17) and high triglycerides (210). My question is: is this common?
Avatar m tn Your descriptions appear to be consistent with clinical presentation of geographic tongue or benjgn migratory glossitis.
Avatar m tn I am 76 years of age. I have had various episodes of lesions on my tongue for about 15 years, many doctors have said it was either cold sores or canker and prescribed zovirax. I have been living with and having both oral and natural sex for 5 years with one sex partner, she never had a problem, we no longer live together. Prior to that time I lived with several women...no problem. Since February I have been living with my latest friend (which should be the last)..
Avatar m tn So if I'm only get small lesions less than 1/2inch and around 2-3 on my tongue....what does that sound like to you?
Avatar f tn I also had burning/ just weird sensations in my back, thighs, toes, and face. I then got lesions on my tongue! I went to a walk in clinic, was told it was thrush. I went to my family doctor, he said it wasn't thrush and could be herpes. He gave me Acyclovir for a week. It didn't help. Oh, I also had discharge in my eyes and my eye doctor said my ducts were blocked up and it could be an allergic reaction.
Avatar n tn Hi It would be difficult to assess without having a look at the lesions as they may be due to several causes like stress, reaction to some medication, milia, perioral dermatitis, contact dermatitis, allergy, rosacea, melasma, psoriasis, irritants etc. However, it seems from your description that the lesions might be a skin condition called milia. Milia, also known as milk spots are pearl-like whiteheads (may look like small grains of sand).
