Hematoma secondary to trauma
Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXX,
Welcome again .
I have gone through reports (image) you have attached. As far as I have observed purple clot over gum is due to Hematoma secondary to trauma . For this I will suggest you to consult Oral surgeon for clinical examination ,investigation radiograph to rule out any fracture in teeth and treatment . In meantime Do warm saline rinses 2 to 3 times a day . Avoid application of hot compresses over swelling, Ice pack can be helpful though .
Hope I have answered your query .
