Suggest Cure For Infection In The Gums

Hi, For the last few weeks I have had on and off cold and this week I have realised that the inner lower part of my nose is swollen. Also, a few days ago my teeth hurt - it feels like I have food stuck inbetween my teeth - I assume this is due to gum swelling....

Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The infection in the gums can be because of the deposits. The hardened deposits secrete acid that dissolves the supporting bone and again gap will be created in between the teeth. So consult a oral physician and get your teeth cleaned and get a root planing and if required grafting done. For the swollen inner aspect of the nose, you can take a course of antibiotics like amoxicillin. If it is not reducing, then consult a ENT surgeon.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
