What Causes Fever, Gums Bleeding, Cold With Lack Of Appetite?

Hi, may I answer your health queries right now ? Please type your query here... My 5 year old daughter had crowns put on all of her back molars 6 days ago. She would not eat anything but yogurt or completely soft foods for 3 days. She has finally started eating but limited. She has been moody and seems to have a cold. She has had a mild fever off and on but tonight when we were brushing her top teeth in back started to bleed.

Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain bleeding from the gums in the area where there is placement of crown can be due to infection in the gum in that area that can be due to infection caused due to lack of proper cleaning..

Pain can lead to reluctance in eating too..

For this consult a Paediatric dentist and get her evaluated and also get an x ray of the tooth done to check for infection..
In case if there is gum infection then scaling will help..

For fever and cold that can be due to viral infection you can give her Acetaminophen but f the fever continue to recur consult a Paediatrician and get a blood test done..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
