Suggest Treatment For Gum Bleeding And Pain

I am 25 and I am having problems with my gums bleeding. I brush my teeth everyday and if I suck hard through my mouth my gums will start bleeding profusely. It has been happening more frequently lately. I have also noticed that my gums in the back where my wisdom teeth are supposed to be are swelling and more sensitive than they have been in the past with throbbing pain.

thanks for your query, i have gone through your query. the bleeding gums could be because of the infected gums causing gingivitis or pericoronitis. it can occur secondary to deposits due to improper maintenance oral hygiene. consult your oral physician and get your teeth cleaned. if it is pericoronitis of wisdom tooth you need to take radiograph to see the space in the bone whether tooth can erupt or not. if space is not sufficient to accommodate the tooth then tooth has to be removed. mean while till you consult a physician you can do saline gargling. after consulting the physician you can start with a course of antibiotic like penicillin and analgesics like diclofenac. i hope my answer will help you. take care.

hello
thnx for your query.it can be a case of gingivitis or periodontitis.in case of your wisdom teeth swelling can be due to pericornitis.some time due to improper/partial erruption of wisdom teeth some part of gingiva covers the tooth forming an envelope for food deposition causing pain and swelling.if that is the case you need to go to a dentist for a proper scaling (cleaning) of teeth and gums and if the problem persist a minor surgery called opurculectomy can be done to remove covering gingiva.scaling ll definitly reduce the gingival inflammation and stop bleeding gums.some antibiotics like ordent/flagyl ll also help reduce the infection.for pain aceclofenac, paracetamol and serratiopeptidase combination tab can be taken.
in addtion to that plz maintain good oral hygiene.
ask your dentist to know about the proper brushing technique.
stay away from bad oral habits like chewing tobacco and smoking.
rinse with a good mouthwash.

hope this ans helps. take care
