Gum infection or tooth problem?!


Question: Gum infection or tooth problem!?
Pain has developed around the lower right of my mouth, near the wisdom tooth!!!

The pain was just minor on the first day, but few days has passed, the pain becomes stronger!.!.!.!.!.!.!.

I looked in the mirror just to check for obvious signs, but teeth around the pain area all seems normal!! No cracks, not loose etc!.

At this time, i assume it must be the gum, but still not sure!.

Today, my face has swollen a little bcs of this pain!.

Can anyone tell me if this is a gum infection!?!?!?

If it is, how should i handle this!?!?

Many thanks!!

(the pain never seems to go away unless i take some ibuprofen or other painkillers!)Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
It Sounds like your getting an abscess so it would be wise to go see your doctor, They may prescribe antibiotics!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

i had a very similar problem a couple of months ago, it turned out to be an infection in the gum caused by not flossing enough!
little bits of foof got trapped in the gum (where you seem to be pointin at) and it caused a nasty infection, the gum was so red and painful, like really bad pressure building up!.
i went to a doc but her said go to my dentist!. The doc only gave me an antibiotic for the infection!. The dentist could have done the same and he removed the food!. Go to your dentist 1st it'll sacve you double the expense
Good luckWww@Answer-Health@Com

you may need a filling,
or a root cunall even!.
but then again it could even be a gum desise!.
you should go and buy a strong mouth wash :)!.
and keep brushing your teeth proply,
and your gums!.
it's no good just brushing your teeth and not your gums!.
keep taking paracetamol to realise the pain a bit!.
if it does seem to get worse then you will have to go and see your doctor :)!. xWww@Answer-Health@Com

It could be an abcess, best go to your dentist ASAP!. they should be able to give you an emergency appointment within 24 hours!. Good luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
