Suggest Remedy For Bumps On Inside Of Bottom Lips In Children

My 6 year old son has small red bumps on the inside of his bottom lip close to the gum line. He complains of them hurting especially when he eats, drinks or if you try to touch his lip. Also, he is complaining of his belly hurting . He points about 2 inches above his belly button. No fever, but very sluggish. Any ideas?

Hi.according to your observation from your Son's mouth.Your son's age is 6 years.. this is the age when permanent teeth start coming into the mouth of the child..The bottom front teeth are the first teeth who develop and start coming amongs all the permanent teeth in the mouth of the 6 years aged child..this leads to swelling and temporary pain in that localised area around the teeth which are near the bottom of the lip and close to gum line..so no need to worry about that..and because of pain and swelling in this area, your son is not able to chew food properly.. which leads to indigestion of food followed by discomfort or hurting at 2 inches above his belly buttons..this does not leads to any fever.. so no need to worry at all about your son..
