Getting Blister On Gums And Blister Pops. Suggest

I had a crown put in back in january. ever since, I have been getting a blister on the outside of my gums just under the crowned tooth. they only last for a few days and pain comes in. The blister pops and the pain goes away until the blister comes back a week or two later. This time however, it has been more painful over the weekend than normal. I am going to call the dentist on Monday, but was wondering if there are some possible thoughts on this issue.
Thanks, Robert

Hi,

Thanks for asking the query,

According to your clinical history i suspect that there can be abscess formation due to food lodgement between the tooth and the crown.
I would suggest you to visit the Dentist and get the checkup done take the x-ray done, go for symptomatic treatment of complete mouth scaling and polishing curettage.
Apply metrogyl oral ointment topically over the affected area.
Take a course of antibiotics and analgesics.
Take lukewarm saline and antiseptic mouthwash rinses.

Hope this helps out.

Regards...
