Swollen gums and a bump around two teeth with cavities.?

For about 2 or 3 days I have had swollen gums and a soft bump in the back on my mouth next to two teeth that have cavities. I'm pregnant, and don't have dental insurance. Does anyone know if I should just try and "pop" the bump myself? It's very painful, and it's keeping me from eating.





Any help would be great.

Sounds like you have some kind of infection going on there, kinda hard to say without proper xrays


you really should see a dentist, it will get worse and could affect your baby
Reply:Sounds like you have some gum disease and possibly an abcessed tooth. FIND a way to go to the dentist. When teeth go bad, they send posion through out you body.....especially your heart. Protect yourself and your baby....see a dentist!!!


Good luck. Pops
Reply:.No leave it alone,you teeth are abscessed.You need them pulled,they can cause blood poisioning
Reply:ALL THE SYMPTOMS YOU'VE DESCRIBED POINT TO THE SIGNS OF AN ABSCESSES TOOTH(TEETH). IT'S CRITICAL TO RECEIVE TREATMENT FOR THIS, ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU'RE PREGNANT.


DO NOT TRY TO "POP" THESE BUMPS, THEY'RE FILLED WITH INFECTED PUS.


PLEASE SEE A DENTIST WHETHER OR NOT YOU HAVE INSURANCE. THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT.
