my 11 month old son is teething he has got 8 teeth through so far 4 on top and 4 on bottom his gums are very swollen on the right side at the top near the back. i have noticed his gum is blue just on that one side. he hasn't got a temp and isn't any more irritable than he was with his other teeth cominhg through. will a doctor help or will i have to take him toa dentist?
thanks for your query, i have gone through your query. The blue color over the gum could be because of the erupting tooth or it can be a eruption cyst. consult a pediatric dental surgeon and get it ruled out if it is just a erupting tooth, then no treatment is required. If it is a cyst then the cyst has to be excised under local anesthesia. i hope my answer will help you. take care.
