Suggest treatment for swollen gums
Patient: Hi, my gums are swollen for the past week i took amoxicillin 500mg and naproxen every 8 hrs already for 5 days and it improves a bit but still the swelling has not gone. I only have the swelling in one of my tooth which is covered by tartar/plaque. Now, when i press on my gums with my tounge blood is coming out. Doctor: Hello,Thanks for consulting HCMRead your query as you have swollen gum with bleeding dont worry this can be due to deposition of plaque and calculus at subgingival region of gums . I will suggest you to consult oral surgeon and go for scaling and root planning . Inmeantime do warm saline rinses 2 - 3 times a day.Hope this will help you.
