Suggest Treatment For A Red Sore On The Gums
My 4 1/2 yr old had a fever yesterday 100.6, and said his throat hurt, and headache. I was going to take him to the dr. today, but his fever is gone, and says only his mouth hurts now, there looks to be a red sore on his gums. Should I take him to a dr, or dentist?
