What are the granules on the inner lips when having oral ulcers all over the mouth?
Disease description:
For several days, right after feeding the baby, the child would burst into tears and even refused the bottle. I was so heartbroken that I cried along with the baby. We went to the hospital and found that the baby's mouth was full of ulcers. Why are there granules on the inside of the lips along with widespread mouth ulcers?

When multiple oral ulcers appear in the mouth, and granular substances are present on the inner lips, this typically indicates a more severe state of inflammation in the oral mucosa. Oral ulcers may be caused by various factors, such as heredity, immune system abnormalities, mental stress, nutritional deficiencies, and so on. The granular substances on the inner lips may be mucosal hyperplasia or lymphoid follicles caused by inflammation. In such cases, timely medical consultation is recommended so that a doctor can make a diagnosis based on specific symptoms and provide an appropriate treatment plan. At the same time, maintaining good lifestyle habits, such as balanced nutrition, adequate sleep, and reduced mental stress, can play a positive role in preventing and relieving oral ulcers. In addition, avoiding irritant foods and excessive oral hygiene practices are also important preventive measures.
