Hello. It looks like your child may have developed and allergic or an irritant skin reaction to the raw mango secretion. However it is not clear which areas are affected - just the skin or oral mucosa as well. Kindly take your child to a Pediatrician or Dermatologist for immediate treatment.
Next Steps
Apply good moisturiser for temporary relief if the lesions are on the skin
Health Tips
Do not use dettol etc. or home remedies as the child's skin is very sensitive and it may worsen the condition
