What Is The Treatment For A Bump On The Gum?

I have a bump on my gum, that only appeared after I nicked my gum with a hard tooth brush. It filled with blood for two days and would come out and fill right back up. But just right now puss came out of it, and then just a lot of blood. I have no pain whatsoever and I have very healthy teeth.

Dentist 's  Response
Hello, Thank you for consulting with HCM.
Actually it looks that you have traumatized your gums with toothbrush and now an abscess has been formed.
You have to visit a dentist as he will examine the lesion and clear the area with irrigation and scaling.
Hope it will help you.
