Hi my daughter had what looked like a second tongue but after some research I have found out that it is the epiglottis. She has been drooling a lot lately not sure if it could be from that or teething and also she has been very unhappy and was wondering if I should take her to our gp or if it is normal? Thank you
Hi, Welcome to Chat Doctor, I had gone through your question and understand your concerns. Epiglottis can be seen in some, epiglottis is acute inflammation, it's an emergency, with severe pain and fever, requires admission, antibiotic and oxygen. I do not feel its epiglottis. Anyway, visit an ENT surgeon for proper evaluation and treatment. Hope, I have answered your query, all the best, take care.
