Hi,
Thank you for your query.
I can understand your concern and would advise to observe the gum for the next week or so. In all probability the white bleb that you are seeing may be the underlying erupting tooth. The loose tooth should come out and the gum should appear better.
I hope I have answered your query to your satisfaction.
Regards,
RKK
