I have a 3 year old with a sore in his mouth. It is between his upper lip and his gums at the very top. It looks like a white circle and it has a red streak coming down to his teeth.
Is it a cold sore or a canker sore? Cold sores are a cluster of blisters that first appear clear then become cloudy. First infection may be inside the mouth, but cold sores generally appear outside the mouth on the lips. Canker sores are gray or white sores surrounded by a red inflamed area. They occur only inside the mouth, on the tongue or the insides of the cheeks, lips or throat.
