Dear Sir My son is around 6 yrs old. He do not want to take food usually. He is becoming emaciated. For few days, we found some blood around his leap at morning time. Teeth seems to be okay. Why it comes ? We are worried of any systemic infection. Please suggest us some possibilities.
Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query. The blood around the lips could be because of the gum infection, or any cuts in the oral cavity or pulp polyp or any bleeding disorders like idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura. Consult an oral physician and get these things ruled out. Get a complete blood investigation along with INR to rule out the bleeding disorders. If any gum infection then get your teeth cleaned and use topical gum astringents like stolen gum paint. If pulp polyp is there then get the tooth treated. If bleeding disorder is there then consult a general physician. I hope my answer will help you, take care.
