Hurt Gum
Posted: 10-25-03 15:53pm

I have had a well almost like a blister in top of my gum. Sometimes it gets like there is puss in there and then sometimes its like a piece of skin thats connected to my gum that I can lift with my tongue. It is sore sometimes and other times it make my teeth hurt. It has been on my gums for about almost 2 months. I dont have dentist insurance so its not like I can and spend a lot of money. I was just wondering if anybody would have any idea.

Sounds like you have an abscess.I had one they put me on amomxicillin to get rid of it.I dont have money like you or dental insurince.But I went anyway cause it hurt so much.You really need to get it looked at and I know its hard with no money but if it is an abscess for now untill you can get it looked at id take a warm wash cloth and hold it near the spot untill you can get it looked it but really you need to get it looked at by a dentist.

Hey, since it's not exactly a tooth related problem, you could probably just go see your regular doctor.
If in fact it is something that needs to be seen by a dentist, they will let you know.
But they may be able to help you with an anti-biotic, or something along those lines.

Just a thought!
