Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My 14 month old is teething. I noticed today that her gums were more swollen than usual on the side of her mouth and looked to be a pus pocket where a tooth is trying to come out. I got a closer look and it looks like pus is down on the gum where the tooth will come out. Does she need immediate treatment? Can this infection hurt her?
