A. Oral thrush is a common infection in babies and the baby might have cracked skin in the corners of the mouth or white patches on the lips, tongue and inside the cheeks. It can occur due to a type of fungus. Consult your paediatrician to prescribe some mouth paint to be applied. If baby is above six months, give yogurt, keep the feeder nipple and pacifiers thoroughly clean.
