Hi about last week my gum in between my two back teeth was a bit swollen and every time I would brush my teeth blood would come out. Now in the same area I have a pimple like bump growing and it feels a bit sore. I have a dentist appointment Friday but what can I do for now to possibly help it go away?
Hello, Welcome Thanks for consulting Chat Doctor, I have gone through your query, as you have swollen gums and bleeding while brushing don't worry it can be due to Periodontal problem may be formation of Periodontal Abscess You do is warm saline gargle two - three times a day Do Chlorhexidine mouthwash twice daily Consult dentist and go for Scaling and root planning if it is periodontal Abscess or due to Caries periapical abscess then Go for Root canal treatment.  Hope this will help you.
