What Are The Possible Treatments For Fluids Inside The Mouth ?

There is a pocket full of fluid inside my mouth that keeps growing in not sure what to do about it. It was an excruciating tooth ache for about 2 weeks but I used lots of mouth wash and was massaging my gums with the tooth brush and that subsided but now I have this pocket that feels weird

Hello,
As you are mentioning that you were having tooth ache 2 weeks ago and after that you felt that there is some fluid filled swelling present there , it looks like that the tooth was infected and now the infection has spread to the apical region and there is some pus there which is causing this swelling.
Only mouth wash can not solve the problem you have to visit a good dentist, as he will go for root canal treatment of that tooth and the problem will be relieved.
Thank You
Regards
