Hi, my one year old got a hard palate injury while falling on a spoon. The bleeding stopped shorty and the second day he looked fine, but the only thing that worries me is that in that area appeared a white bag. should i pop it, if its nothing to worry about, or does it seem something serious?
No nothing serious. There are mucus membrane lining inside the oral cavity. Injury to the membrane cause mild ulceration with new tissue regenerating under the injured one. The injured on will gradually get loose and fall off as the new tissue regenerates. Don't pop it off, it will happen automatically or cause pain. Ypu can apply BYTE one Chat Doctor.
