Suggest Treatment For Painful And Swollen Gums
Two days ago I felt my gum swollen under one tooth "gum" I felt weak pain when press under the right part of my jaw.
Next day I had fever, sore throat and the gum swollen in next parts that it begin in the first place and it was controlled using ibuprofen. For profilaxis, I took Augmentin 625 mg, spiramycin-metronidazol, ibuprofen. I used gargles and mouth washes of different types. Yet the next day larger area of my gum was affected and swollen with the difficulty of swallow. When I tried to brush my teeth, it was painful and it seems that the gum was sensitive and I saw blood.This occured to me for the first time. I am 31 years old.

Hello, thank you for consulting with healthcaremagic.
It looks that your gums are infected , you have to get complete cleaning of your tooth and gums done, as without cleaning the infection will not go no medication can treat it permanently.
So better you visit your dentist and get complete cleaning done.
Hope it will help you.
