How To Treat Blisters In The Mouth?
I have what feels like a blister on the roof of my mouth beside a tooth that has broken off. I poked it with a needle to relieve pressure and it oozed a milky yellowish white pus... Is this an abscess from my bad tooth? The pressure has eased up however, it still feels like a blister as if I could pop it again but I'm nervous about swallowing "infection"

Hello and welcome.
Thanks for sharing your concern.
Please note that there is abscess developed in your upper jaw.
This requires immediate care.you must visit your dentist and start with antibiotics.Also the concerned tooth should be treated by root canal.This will prevent further recurrence of the abscess.
Please do warm saline rinses after food for three times daily.hope it helps.
Thanks.
Take care.
