I just got over a cold, it was an upper respiratory cold. Cough, mucus, sinus pressure. A few days after feeling 100%, I woke up and my glands in my throat were swollen. The next day my gums behind my molars were swollen and extremely tender. I feel sensitivity in my teeth, gums, and what feels like my teeth roots. Im 28, female, 117lbs, 5 1, healthy, not history of gingivitis or anything of that nature. I received my last cleaning last year. Recently had four fillings replaced in my upper teeth, about a year ago. I still have older fillings on the bottom. Wisdom teeth were pulled in 2006.
Thanx for the query. I have gone through your problem and came to the conclusion that you had the history of sinusitis, sometimes tenderness is associated to sinusitis.I will advise you to take azithromycin and do medicine mouthwash. If problem persists consult your dentist for interdental curettage of swollen molar gums. Hope you found solution for your problem. Keep smiling......
