Boils in Gums.

2018-01-27 10:11:56
I am 70years old with good health. For last 15 days there is pain in two boils which have come up in the lower right side gums. I have tried moxikind CV 625for six days (yes, double the dose) but only temp relief. Pain and boils are back after I discontinued the medication. I also used ornigrate gel but of no great use. Kindly advise. Thanks
