What Does A Painful Hole Near Frenulum Indicate?
Hi, for about a week now ive had a hole not quite on but next to my frenulum (which I have pierced) I havent visited a dentist in months and no discharge or fluids have been recognizable so I doubted it was serious but its painful like an ulcer when touched although apart from that its normal. Some form of advice would be great please. Thank you

Hello,
I can understand your concern for the painful hole near frenulum. After analyzing your query with diligence it appears to be ulcer due to infection.
Most of your symptoms indicate an infection at the affected site. In your kind of cases I generally prescribe a course of antibiotic along with a cream containing mupirocin. I suggest you to meet a doctor to get proper treatment.
