Nausea, Bruises, Bleeding Gums, Chest Pain. Serious?

Hi,

Thanks for asking the query,

Bleeding gums usually occurs due to inflammation of gums known as Gingivitis which occurs due to poor oral hygiene, plague and calculus deposition, nutritional deficiencies, endocrine changes like puberty,diabetes, leukemia.
I would suggest you to visit the Dentist and get the checkup done, take an OPG radiograph to find out the exact cause of bleeding gums.
Go for symptomatic treatment of complete mouth scaling and polishing.
use chlorhexidine mouthwash regularly.
Also get your routine blood checkup done.

Hope this helps out.

Hello there ,

Thanks for writing your query,

Bleeding gums nad nausea are the signs of gingival inflammation known as gingivits.

It is caused due poor oral hygiene ,improper brushing and flossing that leads to accumulation of bacterial plaque and calculus deep in the gum pockets and root surfaces of the teeth.

Gingivitis presents with symptoms of redness , bleeding gums , swelling , pain ,recession and sensitivity.

It needs to be treated by thorough professional deep scaling of gums and root planing of the teeth to remove all the irritants ,this will help in resolving the symptoms followed by a course of antibiotic and analgesics.

i would suggest you to go for symptomatic treatment at home like gargling with lukewarm saline water or antiseptic mouthwash like chlorhexidine or betadine.

For chest pain and brisues over the body you need to consult a physician and get examination done.

i hope this helps ,

take care.

Hi Ashton,
Thanks for writing,

Periodontitis, which causes bleeding of gums also, is associated with large number of systemic diseases. There can be a lot more serious underlying condition which might require immediate concern.

I would recommend you to visit a general physician at the earliest. Use a antiseptic mouth wash 2-3 times a day. It will prevent any bacterial complication.

Stay healthy,,

Hello,



Thanks for posting your query.



I understand that you are noticing multiple bruises on your body along with gum bleeding it is better that you get a complete blood investigation done to check the platelet count.There is a correlation between your bleeding gums and bruises.Do you have any bleeding disorder or are you under any medication?

For pain in the chest and nausea doctor needs to examine you.He may advise ECG, or Echo cardiograph.

Hello and welcome to HCM,

The two problems that you have mentioned- feeling nauseated, vomiting, bruising and sharp pain on the chest need to investigated.

A complete hemogram will help to know the status of red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets.
A complete examination and investigations of the gastrointestinal tract needs to be done to find out the cause of nausea and vomiting.
Stinging pain on the chest indicates a nerve injury.

So, consult your doctor for complete clinical examination and relevant investigations.
