Hi Dear,

Understanding your concern. First of all you should treat the existing injuries as it can lead to severe bleeding as well. You should apply cold compresses to lips and tongue. Avoid repeated touching or pricking by giving continuous attention to child, and by covering hand with wet piece of cloth. I would suggest you to consult dentist for proper examination. Doctor will examine carefully to rule out certain conditions and may prescribe antibiotics , anti inflammatory or vitamin B 12 supplement.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry
