What Causes Infection On Lips And In Mouth?
Hi, i ate half if a muffin before i realised it was mouldy. The next day a herpes infection broke up on my lips and in my mouth and tongue. I have only had it on my lips in the padt. I am also nursing a 6 wk baby. Is this from the mould? I am using cream for the lips but the mouth sores are still very painful

thanks for your query, i have gone through your query, the ulcers could be due to herpes infection nothing to worry it will go off within a week...just take symptomatic treatment like topical anesthetic and analgesics...the infection might have come from the infected mould or secondary to stress...take topical antiviral since you are lactating.. i hope my answer will help you..take care..
