Does A Bruised And Sore Gum Require Medical Attention?
I was eating chips the other night at a party and the chips were pretty hard and the corners were sharp that when I would chew it would hit my gums I should of stopped but the tortilla chip was the only thing I could eat at the time so it's been 3 days since the party but my gums are sore and it's hard for me to chew anything else, I checked it with a mirror and it looks a bit bruised up. I was wondering if this is a serious case or will it heal eventually?
