How To Cure Mouth Ulcers While Suffering From Hand Foot And Mouth Disease?
my twins babies, 13 months olds have been diagnosed with hand foot and mouth disease, 2 days ago. It has been 8 days since it all started, there is no more fever but the ulcers in the mouth of one of them don't seem to get better. They just look worse and worse, her gums are constantly bleeding specially at night. Should i be concerned or it is just the process of this disease? is there anything that i can give her to help the mouth ulcers to get better, at hospital they told me there is no cream or nothing that can help and just don't touch it, but because of the bleeding the smell coming from her mouth is quite stinky.
