Sometimes your baby can get blisters on their lips. This can be caused by simple things like learning how to breastfeed or it can be a sign of an infection. There are things you can do to make sure your baby is comfortable and healing.<\/p>\n

Causes of Blisters on Your Baby\u2019s Lip<\/strong><\/h1>\n

A blister is a raised bump on the skin that\u2019s filled with fluid. The skin is tender and can hurt if it\u2019s pressed or broken open, which can make your baby grouchy.<\/p>\n

Babies can get breastfeeding blisters on the inside of their lips. The sucking action can cause a callus on the skin. Sometimes babies are born with these blisters if they sucked their fingers in the womb.<\/p>\n

Cold sores cause blisters on the lips. Cold sores, sometimes called fever blisters, can show up on your baby\u2019s lips and are caused by the Herpes simplex 1 virus. If you have an active sore, you should keep it covered and don\u2019t kiss your baby. You might pass the virus to them. A herpes infection can be very dangerous for newborns.<\/p>\n

Blisters can sometimes be an allergic reaction. Your baby could be allergic to ingredients in lotions, creams, or lip balm used on or near the lips. If your baby gets blisters after you introduce a food, they might have a food allergy.<\/p>\n

Impetigo is an infection caused by Staphylococcus or Streptococcus bacteria that causes blisters on the lip and around the mouth. They can burst and leak fluid, and then a crust forms over top. They can also look like larger, clear blisters full of fluid that don\u2019t burst.<\/p>\n

Oral thrush causes white blisters on your baby\u2019s lips. The white patches are also inside the mouth on the tongue, cheeks, and roof of the mouth. They look like cottage cheese or milk and can make it hurt to suck or swallow. This is caused by an overgrowth of yeast.<\/p>\n

A blister is a raised bump on the skin full of clear liquid. It can break and leak, and the skin can be sore. This can cause your baby to have trouble eating or to be grouchy because it hurts.<\/p>\n

If blisters are caused by learning how to breastfeed or from sucking, there might not be any other symptoms, though.<\/p>\n

Treatment for Blisters on Your Baby\u2019s Lips<\/strong><\/h1>\n

The treatment for lip blisters differs depending on the type of blister. Dr. Diard explains.<\/p>\n

Treatment for sucking blisters<\/strong><\/p>\n

Because sucking blisters go away on their own, you don\u2019t really need to treat them. If your baby\u2019s lips seem dry, a little olive or coconut oil can help. Rubbing on a bit of hand-expressed breast milk can also be very healing.<\/p>\n

Treatment for cold sores<\/strong><\/p>\n

See your provider right away if your baby has a cold sore. Newborns with cold sores need urgent treatment with an antiviral medication to reduce the risk of severe disease.<\/p>\n

\u201cEven with treatment, newborn herpes can be life-threatening or cause long-term effects,\u201d Dr. Diard says. \u201cYour provider can guide their care and next steps.\u201d<\/p>\n

Treatment for other types of lip blisters<\/strong><\/p>\n

Treatment for the other types of lip blisters varies, but in all cases, it\u2019s best to speak with your child\u2019s healthcare provider.<\/p>\n

For an allergic reaction, stop using any products that might be the source. Ask your provider to weigh in and offer tips to comfort them as they heal.
\nHFMD typically clears up on its own.
\nImpetigo and oral thrush require medications.
\nPreventive measures to avoid lip blisters
\nAlthough sucking blisters aren\u2019t harmful and don\u2019t require treatment, they can be a sign of feeding problems.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re bottle-feeding: Make sure your baby gets most of the bottle\u2019s nipple in their mouth and that the nipple is the right size.
\nIf you\u2019re breastfeeding: Make sure your baby has a good latch. If you\u2019re having latching difficulties, a lactation consultant may be able to help.
\nWhen it comes to preventing cold sores, impetigo and other infectious diseases, take precautions around newborns.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnyone with a contagious illness should avoid close contact with a newborn,\u201d stresses Dr. Diard. \u201cIf a close family member has an infection, talk to your provider about how to protect your infant.\u201d<\/p>\n
