My toddler fell with a straw in her mouth.
This happend three days ago. I didn't
see anything in her mouth other that her
tonsil looked swollen. On the second day
her tonsils had a white spot that appeared
to be where she had hurt herself with the
straw. She does say her mouth hurts, but
doesn't complain very often. I also
notice that she is rubbing her ear like it
is bothering her. The ear is on the same
side as the sore. Today, day three the
sore is red and doesn't look terrible, but
I am concerned if there is anything I
should watch for. Could this cause ear
problems or is the ear a side affect that
will heal with the sore? She doesn't have
a fever, and she is active and eating
normal.
