How Can A Blister On The Gums After Injury Be Treated?

About 3ish, 4 days ago, my tooth brush slipped and jabbed my bottom gum Line right in the middle. There is a small blister looking bubble. Can I rinse with warm water and salt? And would this cause a slight numbness on the bottom lip infront of said gums? Thanks, Amanda.

Hi.... by what you got I feel that you have developed A sub mucous cyst or a post traumatic cyst. I suggest you consult your dental surgeon regarding this. It will require a week of antibiotic therapy and probably surgical intervention which will be a day care procedure.
