So you are tired of Google but you think Nairaland is a better alternative. You are mentally challenged! Take the poor girl to the hospital before I slap you electronically

Pls slap him NAIRALANDICALLY! lolz!

It is DEFINITELY NOT an infection.

Infections don't last 10 years.

Due to the blisters, she might sometimes develop a superimposed infection.

But the primary problem that she has had for 10 years is not an infection.

It is impossible for anybody to make a diagnosis online, so you are probably better off taking her to a good hospital.

Hereditary telangiectasia however can cause recurrent AV malformations which may be the reason for the bloody blisters in her mouth.

You can google that and see if her symptoms possibly suggest that diagnosis.

And like somebody else said earlier, doing a swab, microscopy and culture is probably the worst suggestion because the mouth has so many organisms that are normally supposed to be there.

Bottom line, look for a good DOC

I completely agree.
For an illness that has defied therapy over the years, rarer diagnoses should be considered.
Osler Weber Rendu (Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia) is on my differential, but the OP has yet to reply the few other questions I asked.
Even the pics show oral telangiectasiae (which I believe is the primary pathology, given the recurrent oral bleeds). Vesicles typically don't bleed when they rupture, so those vesicles aren't so bothersome to me.

Please, please, Gentlemen and Ladies; please help me.

I have a niece who had a mouth problem since she 4 to 5 years old but now she is 15 years old.


The problem is this:

There is some kind of rashes that uses to swell up in her mouth and some are small and some are not and as it is, every night and day her mouth is bleeding due to those rashes on her tongue and inside her mouth.

The thing also affected her teeth and that her teeth look so dirty, she can't eat food that is contained with pepper neighter can she eat hot food nor drink hot things because it pains her.

We have do almost all sorts of medical remedies but to no avail.

I believe that her problem will come to end once I post on this internet of nairaland.com as someone directed me here to ask anything because am tired of google.

Please my brothers and sisters I really need your help on what I should do to make her mouth look fresh, smooth and clean again like every other human being.

See the photos of her mouth, tongue and teeth.

Am thinking it may be a glossal haemangioma....

ahsekeena:



U don't have common sense. And that's why I will ignore ur future replies.


Common sense!!

Smh! U lack common sense,wow! I can't believe people like u exist. Olodo!

Hmm... all the diagnosis for just one person. Well since most nairalanders have dropped their diagnosis, it won't be a bad idea if I drop mine.

Since the tongue is d primary site, glossitis will come to mind. The cause may be unknown and moreover she has had it from childhood. 11yrs and on discards all the big diagnosis mentioned here. Cancer, HIV, Stand alone Candidiasis. Etc. Mouth cancer has no burning symptom.

Therefore it could be Benign glossitis with super imposed infection. Bacteria or Fungal. Better still ....Benign Migratory Glossitis.a.k.a Geographic Tongue.

Herpes Simplex Of The Tongue. HSV 1 is also a probable cause. Vesicular eruptions on the mucosal surface mouth...tongue. Raises high index of suspicion.

Since she has burning sensation, can't tolerate spicy or hot foods. Burning Mouth Syndrome a.k.a Glossodynia should also be considered.

Hopefully, a trained specialist in dental care should be consulted.

Am not one.....Am a specialist in Fanny Swindling .

pls watch dis close,i recomend u apply dis prednisolone 30mg tds,wit proper follow up,wit excess water.4 a month and c d result 1st.

Which hospitals have you gone to and what diagnosis did they make their? Did you see any Dentist at all ?
Answer these then i might be able to help you more. Its not just enough to see doctors, you need to see the RIGHT doctor!

jammani:
Please take her abroad cos I guess for the past 12yrs, you have been using Nigeria hospitals.

i fink dat's d best tin 2do,if it's nt bcus of negligency..it is supposed 2 b sorted out years ago b4 nw..i pray she gets beta inshallah

ElPhoche:

You and Lagusta mirrored my thoughts. The long history and absence of white plaques kinda defeats those. It might be far reaching, but what about amyloidosis?

My oga, the list of differentials is endless....

She needs a team of specialists asap, especially those in internal medicine.....

ziga:

Bottom line, look for a good DOC

Since these micro organisms in the mouth are normal flora, the microscopy and culture should be able to detect pathogenic organisms. We can achieve this by comparing the organisms found in a 'healthy' mouth versus hers and use a selective culture media for that 'out of place' organism. My opinion

AKOKORO that's what we call this dental problem in my dialect..'m from ondo state,i dnt expect you to believe me but i tell you your niece can get cured without you spending a dine..where are u? How can we see? Call me07037267675

Toktee:
that is when u succk a candida infected diick,ladies here that succk dicck for money,beweare.,ehen sorry op,to ease her pains before goig to hospital,by b2 for her it kills such sores fast,just put it in the mouth like two tablet and leave it there to dissolve.

and what exactly ate you trying to imply

If you reside in lagos please locate the RCCG camp ground. Our convention comes up next month. Send me a mail please.

Please take this girl to The hospital. She has Herpes Simplex Virus. This is the oral version of the virus and it will NOT respond to any antibiotics or antifungal agents. For those saying Oral Candidiasis, it's a huge fail.

Candidiasis is a thrush like coating with sores. This one is vehicular and clustered, very typical of Herpes.

She also needs a HIV test

Waste of time, money and potentially patient's life.

What type of organisms are you hoping to grow from the selective media?

TB, Gonorrhea, Chlamydia, Ricckettssia?

None of those organisms have symptoms like the OP described. They do not infect the tongue.

Lagusta:


Some viral infections can last for that long... Remember warts

And someone above asked how she could have been infected with herpes, come on, this is Nigeria, she is a child, she was 4yrs at that time, God knows what she put in her mouth, maybe even a used condom. You don't know what your children do behind you....

But the best bet is for the OP to take the child to a teaching hospital for further evaluation....

Everybody is even screaming UCH as if its the best.... Nigerians and sentiments...

Warts do not cause blood filled blisters.

None of the STDs have symptoms described by the OP.

kindly take her to the nearest health center. .
but if u haven't dine that due to financial lack.
make her do oil pulling (wubbling) in her mouth every morning and evening before brushing.
olive oil or coconut oil.
u should Google it if u doubt Me.
it helps in fighting tooth decay and bad breath.

ziga:

My oga, I'm trying to say that warts is a viral infection that can last a lifetime, I didn't say this girl has warts.....

And is it because I mentioned condom Habaaaa, that was a joke nah....

I was just trying to say that children can put anything in their mouths; old spoons, rags, used towels, anything....

God bless

psucc:
Pls let her visit a good hospital preferably General hospital.

why not specialist hospital for expert consultation.
wishes her better health sooner.ameeen.

Pls take her to an oralphangeal dr in a teachingg hospitl abiospy must be done to ascertain the cursative organism there by prompt medication will be instituted
Then check foods she eat it might be aggravated by allergy though the wound I saw is infected
May God send his healing hands upon him

divAnnie:
You have to go to a hospital and tell them to use a swab stick to collect the fluid coming from the blisters for culture. This will help to identify the specific organism responsible for it and determine its sensitivity. Random antibiotics may not work. Please take this girl for proper treatment. Wishing her speedy recovery.

@Lalasticlala, other opinions are needed please

I bet u r a microbiologist

@OP
What have you been looking since she was 5years old when the problem started
Take her to general hospital to see a specialist immediately

Take her to a dental doctor

opeaceo:


Lol, *eyes covered*, na you sabi.

Babe how far na. It don tey o.

unitysheart:

Babe how far na. It don tey o.

Yeap, everything is good and fine.

There is a week of free medical services going on @ Uyo presently. It ends on Thursday. Pls take her there 'cos they have doctors from South Korea, India, South Africa as well as Nigeria. God is your strength.

@op sometimes tinz should not be taken 4 granted prayer solves all tins u and ur family should fast for her....and God will make a way where they seems 2 b no way...

The OP needs to go bact to nursery schl and learn spelling and dictation. NO HARD FEELINGS

onyedikachukwue:
That's oropharyngeal candidiasis(thrush). A fungal infection. Take her to good hospital

All these fake/dull doctors on this thread. Bro I hail Jor. u knw book jare.

mentorandfriend:
I could even count up to 50 differentials of that kind of sore. If she is losing weight, I strongly think it is thrush (oral candidiasis), and thus the parents must ascertain their HIV status and that of the child. Oral candidiasis is an AIDS-defining disease.

It could be oral cancer too, since it is involving the teeth and gingivae. Oral erosion from oral cancer can become superimposed with bacteria and other flora in the mouth and cause massive pus formation.

Another is Blastomycosis, then oral Herpes Simplex Virus-1.

She must get tested for HIV first, she and her parents. The sore sample should be tested for culture and sensitivity, and strong antibiotics that the test sample is sensitive to should be given upwards of 21days. It will surely clear that mess of pus and swollen sores first before anything else. Goodluck.

@Opeaceo; shey u see ppl way really go sch, dey there dey wear white dey stroll for ward with glasses for your okpolo eye. @mentorandfriend: ride on jor.

chibabe3:
Looks like she is allergic to something or food. Don't forget that God can heal her.
