Hi,
Cannot say in your particular case, especially without seeing the dermatologic changes. AND, while it is rare, someone can have an allergic reaction to tylenol with irritation especially where the drug has contact (the mouth).
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
