[|Human|] My six year old daughter(about 38 lbs and 42 in, taking thyroid medication and has extremely low bone density with at least 3 compressed vertebrae) has had a sore tongue and cheek for a week or two. It is on the right side and it hurts to touch or swallow. I can t see anything just looking (as much as she will let me). There is no redness or swelling or lesions that I can see. There was some plaque and inflammation (gums only), but I don t think that is what is causing the pain. It seems like it is getting worse and I m wondering if it is a blocked salivary duct and where would be the best place to take her (dentist, pediatrician, or ENT).
[|AI|]  Thanks for your query. I have gone through your query/The soreness in the mouth can be because of the authors ulcers. The other possible cause can be because of the tooth infection. Nothing to be panic, consult a pediatric dental surgeon and get it evaluated. If it is an authors ulcer, you can take topical analgesic like choline salicylate. If it is a tooth infection, you need to take a course of antibiotics like amoxicillin(if you are not allergic). Then the tooth has to be treated endodontically. I hope I have answered your query. Take care
