What Is Causing White Smelly Pus In My Gum Line?

During my very recent pregnancy, I noticed a small area in my gum line that a white, smelly pus is oozing out. I take very good care of my teeth, but am without insurance at the moment. The pus is still there and I don't know what to do being uninsured. Please help.

thanks for your query, i have gone through your query, since you are pregnant you need to give extra care to your oral hygiene. the pus discharge could be because of the gum infection. you cant take any medicines just do saline gargling and get your teeth cleaned after consulting a oral physician. never neglect, otherwise the teeth become weak and in later stages it will not be in a state to save. i hope my answer will help you. take care.
