Suggest Remedy For Dental Problem

Hello,So it appears that my wisdom tooth is wanting to come out. Lately my gym, where the tooth ia supposedly growing, has been swollen and it hurts when I chew on that side. But just now I noticed that I have a small hole on that part of my gum, ita small and when I brushed my teeth, I'm guessing it hit that area, and it started bleeding. Is this normal?

Hello,

Thanks for consulting HCM,

Read your query, as you have wisdom tooth area swollen and it hurts this can be due to erupting wisdom tooth or impaction of wisdom tooth causing pain it can be due to mesioangular impaction , or distoangular impaction or due to Pericoronitis .
I will suggest you to consult dentist and go for investigations iopa Xray of region of wisdom tooth to rule out the cause of pain. Inmeantime do warm saline gargle two - three times a day, you can take analgesic for pain like Diclomol SP or ketrol DT .

Hope this will help you.
Wishing you good health.

Regards ,
