A. there is no need to clean ok. you can show the baby to a pediatric doctor who will check and find the right diagnosis and treat wellsee more you can ask your own treating doctor. i am sure they will solve all your doubts and guide you

A. hi if there is white patch and it remains same after cleaning your child toungue then it might be fungal infection. so please consult your pediatrician for once. and if your child looks happy healthy and active,eat and sleep well then no need to worry about anything.
