What Causes Small White Bumps In Mouth?
My son and daughter, ages 5 and 6, have had a fever for three days. They complain of sore throats. We have seen our physician, who promptly prescribed amoxicillan. Now a day after starting the antibiotic, they have both developed small white bumps in their mouths. What are they? All vaccines are up to date.
