Suggest Treatment For Lumps On The Gum

I had a root canal tooth come out and had the infected area cleaned. The dentist prepared my gum for implants with some kind of membrane, then sewed up the area. After the stitches were removed I started getting these lumps with clear liquid appear on the site. They opened then sewed it shut again thinking they had left a suture in there. Two days later more clear bumps are appearing again. Have you ever heard if this?

Sounds like a apthous ulcer, which is a virus that frequently shows up after one's oral tissue is manipulated during dental treatment. The virus cause clear, blister like sores that last around 10 days, and are usually quite painful.
