Noticed Pus From The Gum Where The Teeth Was Retrieved

I had a tooth removed two weeks ago. Second from the back on the left side. I had some problems with pus leaking out, and now the hole has a bulging white clot coming out of it. What can I do to help this problem. I am still in a great amount of pain. And it bleds quite often, especially if I bend over.

Thanks for posting your query to HCM.
After going through your history, I would suggest you to visit an oral surgeon for proper examination and irrigation of the concerned area.
Till then you should do Betadine rinses 3-4 times a day and take Ketorol DT tab 3 times a day for pain relief.
Hope my answer will help you.
