Hi ! Good evening. I am Dr Shareef answering your query.
Any gum swelling could be a benign or a malignant lesion and the differentiation could be made only on a clinical examination and related radiological and histological investigations which might not be possible over net. Therefore, I would suggest you to get appointment with a general surgeon/maxillo-facial surgeon for a clinical assessment and further management.
I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts.
Thanks for choosing health care magic to clear doubts on your health problems. I wish you an early recovery. Dr Shareef.
