What Causes Pain In Bottom Of Right Gums?

default
Posted on Mon, 23 Jun 2014
Question: My bottom right gums have been hurting and I have pain on that side of my tongue. Ive seen a few doctors and even a dentist and nothing they have done for me has helped. I was wondering if you could tell me what medicine I could take for this pain to go away. I cant eat and I can barely drink anything.

gum infection, traumatic ulcer, analgesics

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
the pain in the gums could be because of the gum infection or it could be secondary to ulcers because of trauma from teeth or tooth brush.

the pain in the tongue could be because of the traumatic ulcer or herpetic ulcer.
if i am your treating doctor I would have suggested you to take topical analgesics and anesthetics like XXXXXXX gel or topical steroids like triamcinolone acetonide 0.1% would help you.you can use mouth washes to rinse your mouth.

You can consult your oral physician to rule out the above mentioned conditions. Get your teeth cleaned and maintain oral hygiene.

You have not mentioned from how many days you have pain or presence of any ulcer.
Let me know if any queries are there.

I hope my answer will help you. Take care.
