What Causes The Bottom Lip To Be White In A 10 Month Old?

My ten month old's lip is white on his bottom lip. Not the entire lip, but the top and slightly inside. He was at the doctor this morning and their was nothing on his lip. It is not irritating him, nor are there any blisters. His bottom teeth are in and his top teeth are coming in. I dont believe it is formula residue as he has not had formula since 3 and his mouth is always wiped clean. There is no white on the inside of his mouth it is strictly on his lower lip. Any thoughts?

Hi...Thank you for consulting in Health Care magic.

By what you quote it seems to be a normal finding to me as the teeth are erupting. Your doctor might be right. If still in doubt, kindly upload the photos and get back.
Hope my answer was helpful for you. I am happy to help any time. Further clarifications and consultations on Health care magic are welcome. If you do not have any clarifications, you can close the discussion and rate the answer. Wish your kid good health.
