Diagnosed With Flu. Hurting And Bleeding Gums, An Abscess Found At The Back Of Mouth. Any Advice ?
my son (he is 8) got diagnosed with the flu a week ago. 2 days after the diagnoses he started complaining about his gums hurting and they were bleeding so i took him back to the doctor. They found an abscess on his gums int he back of his mouth and gave him an antibiotic and mouth wash. that night i looked at his gums and found that he has not 1 but 4 abscesses. (1 in each corner of his mouth) now his gums keep getting worse even with the antibiotic and his lips are now swollen and the inside of his lips look infected.Im not sure what to do to help him... any advice would be great.
