Like the others have said you should call his doctor. When my daughter had small red bumps all over her tongue, it was strep throat.

It can be 1 of many things!I would call my doctor just to be sure!! They will ask: How long he has had them, Spots any place else on the body, any fever,etc. You need to call, if for no other reason than your peace of mind! Good Luck!!

it wouldn't hurt to call the doctors office and ask to speak to a nurse. He/She can tell you whether it is necessary to come in. Any fever or stomach pain? If yes, get to doc for sure.

sounds like it could be yeast infecton. Has he been on any antibiotics? Somethimes this causes that. Sounds like you should check it out with a Dr.
