When all of sudden my daughter started rejecting all salty and spicy food, I was a little worried and checked her mouth.

I could see the white patches and coating on tongue. Within no time I was able to diagnose that's nothing serious but an Oral Thrush.
📍 Oral thrush is fungal infection looks like white coating or white patches on the tongue, mouth, inner cheeks, and back of the throat sometimes.
📍 Oral thrush caused by an overgrowth of the fungus;Candida albicans.
📍Reason :- usually we have a small amount of this fungi in our mouth and skin, low immunity, disturbed Gut health may stimulate the overgrowth of this yeast and that results into oral thrush.
😈 Usually we take curd in our routine diet, since the weather was bad here we avoid curd for two days and that results in poor Gut health.
📍 Treatment I gave :-
No medicines for first day :- rather give lots of natural fruits and juices rich in vit C, Curd, proper hydration and strictly no sugar.
Maintaining oral hygiene:- toddler tends to put some or other things in mouth so be gentle and ask them not to do that, trim the nails, frequent hand washing, gargle with lukewarm water and turmeric, brushing teeth twice.
📌📌:- If you know your kid is on some medication or having low immunity, consult your paediatrician immediately. #kidshealth #oralthrushbaby #doctormomslife #toddlermom #momlife
