Suggest Remedy For Pain In Gum
On Friday, my gum on the left side of my mouth near my back tooth started to hurt. Its painful to touch. I do not believe I have my wisdom teeth yet and I have never had teeth problems. Now my left lymph node hurt right under where my gum hurts. I can not sure what it is and what should I do about it.
