What Can Cause Bumps In Mouth And Fever In Kids?

My daughter is 5 years old. About 2 days ago she had a °104 fever along with chills. Yesterday she complained all day of her mouth hurting and could not eat due to the paon. She woke up in the middle of the crying and said there were bumps all over her. I rubbed herr and realized that she has bumns on her calf and knee and also her elbows. When she woke up this morning t the rash had spread to her palms, back of the hands, bottom and tops of hrr feet and her arms. Within in about 4 hours the bumps had multiplied. I took her to the doctor and she said it was just a virus but also informed me that my daughter also has bumps in the back of her mouth. Im not happy with the doctors decision, being that she performed no tests.. The bumps dont itch so i have no clue whays wrong with ny daughter!! Please help ud

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query your daughter have symptoms of bumps in mouth and fever is because of viral infection. It seems to be due to herpetic gingivostomatitis due to poor and compromised immunity of body. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to start with Ibuprofen with fever and body ache. Take diet rich in plenty of fluids. avoid cold carbonated drinks. You should take take multivitamin supplement, containing Vit.C, B complex and magnesium to help with muscle stiffness and fatigue. Your symptoms will resolve in one week. Avoid intake of hot, sharp and spicy food. Till then have rest and visit pediatrician once and get it examined. start with proper course of antiviral drugs after prescription. Avoid spicy food.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
