How To Get Rid Of Pain And Sore Bump On My Gums?

I have a sore bump on my gums that makes it difficult for me to put in my implant dentures. What is an over-the-counter drug I can use to reduce this bump and relieve the pain? I have been duding salt rinses, using listering and the rinse my dentist gave me without results. Please help!!

Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query. the bump on the gums could be because of gum infection secondary to chronic irritation by the denture. consult a oral physician to rule out whether it is a gum infection or a over growth of the tissue. if it is infection you can take a course of antibiotics and analgesics. if it is a growth then it has to be surgically removed. i hope my answer will help you, take care.
