Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
i have an abscess on the top part of my gum right above my front left tooth but not near my tooth tho and i have no pain but it s pressure and tightness and i have been feeling really tired and a little weakness in my jaws today. i went to the hospital and they gave me steroids and amoxicillin which i have been on for about 6 or 7 days and already finished my steroids. just kinda wondering when will i start feeling completely better? i take the antibiotic every 8 hrs for 10 days and my abscess hasn t popped yet and also been using salt water like 5 times a day. how can i get it to pop naturally?

How Can An Abscess On The Gum Be Treated?
Hi, I understand your concern. Do not try to pop the abscess, it will gradually get reduced as the antibiotic will give the full effect. So just follow your doctor s advice. Wish fast recovery.
