Answers:
If you get him to hold some warm salt water in his mouth then spit it out, then I wouldnt do anything. Salt water is very healing to the mouth Anyways with or without the salt water, the mouth is a very healing place and it will be gone in a day or two. Health Question & Answer

If no teeth are loose and the lip is intact with no complete hole in through it, then just give him baby Tylenol. You might get a wash cloth and stick an ice cube in it for him to put on the sore to make it feel better.Health Question & Answer

If you are really worried, you should go to a doctor, but it'll probably go away in a few days. That usually happens to cuts on the inside of the mouth; usually, the saliva will irritate it.Health Question & Answer

have him eat some mr freezes or popsicles (there are sugar free our there also) so it is nice and cool but there isn't really anyone can do I would suggest you just keep an eye on it and it will heal on its own...Health Question & Answer
