I have a swelling gum which is covering half of my wisdom tooth . It has been been swelling for 3 days and i have gargled perxide and water solution, water and salt and even putting the peroxide around my gum and tooth using cotton bud. I can feel swelling lymph node behind my tongue. I am having hard time swallowing food coz it hurts and opening my mouth. Please advice me on what to do and what do you think this might be.
Helots condition seem to be peritonitis. The gums aurroundindyour wisdom tooth got infected and due TP this infectionlumph nodes has got enlarged. You need to take antibiotic sand analgesics to lower the infection and visit your dentist may be you need to extract your wisdom tooth it's an extra toot hand does carry any function so no harm in getting it removed.
