How Serious Could A Child S Painful Mouth After Accidental Poison Intake Be?
My daugther ingested about .5 ounce of a 1 ounce bottle of auro dri on Tuesday night. We called poison control and they said that she might have some vomittng and to keep an eye on her. Today she has been complaining and crying that her mouth hurts. I have looked in it with a flash light and don t see any redness. Is there reason for concern?
Hi and welcome to HCM,thanks for the query. No,you dont have to be concerned. this is expected after such incidents and it may last for few days. just wash her mouth with water or toothpaste frequently. Wish you good health. Regards
