What Could Be The Reason For Painful Teeth, White Gums And White Inner Eyelids?

my teeth and gums have been hurting but my teeth are healthy. I noticed that my gums are white. Also my inner lower eyelid is fairly white as well. My gums and eyelid do not have rough patches they are just white with not much pink. Could I have a vitamin deficiency of some sort?

Hello

Thanks for contacting HEALTH care magic. I would request you to kindly explain the hurting in your teeth - like they always hurt or on eating or biting, is it burning or increased sensation to chilies. As far as whitening n loss of rough patches of gums n eyelid is concerned, in some cases it might be caused by deficiency of Vitamin C. You can take a course of Multivitamins and increase the uptake of dietary rich food in Vitamin C.
wishing for good health and update from you.
