I just found a hard white bump in my gums, underneath one of my lower canines. After poking at it with my finger, the white bit came out. My gums around the tooth are swollen and there s a pinprick of blood where the abscess popped out, but there s no pain. There was no pus, but I was able to squeeze the white bit after it came out. It made a popping sensation and a tiny bit of fluid leaked from that. Is this just an abscess? I gargled with mouthwash to kill whatever my bacteria might be around the site, but I can t afford dental care.
Hi, dear. I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You may have some abscess formation due to gingivitis. You should take a course of antibiotics.  Consult your doctor and take treatment accordingly.  If you don't get benefits then consult dentist for further investigation.
