Hello and welcome.

Thanks for sharing your concern.

Blood blisters would have developed due to continuous irritation from the jagged end of the tooth.

For now please maintain good oral hygiene.

Take plenty of fluid and semisolid diet.

Avoid hard,hot and spicy food products.

Try to apply local anesthetic gel like dologel before food so that the pain is relieved.

If you find more discomfort you can take analgesics too.

Please do not ignore and get the tooth treated soon.

Hope it helps.

Thanks.
Take care.
