hmm, sounds like it could be necrosis of the gum..or if it's like a blood blister then it could be some trauma or gingival hyperplasia.. He will need to get to a surgery asap to have some x-rays taken to see the state of the centre of the tooth and around the root of it. He may have an abcess, which would be causing the pain...but you can't really tell anything until seeing an xray.
gingivites?
THEY ARE ON CHRISTMAS HOLIDAY, HAVE HIM CALL A JEWISH DENTIST.
Cavities?
