Pain in gum and teeth joint + red spots
From last 5 days I'am having moderate pain in one teeth and gum joint also some red spots are there. Moderate gum swelling is there.
It does not have burning sensation like gim ulcer but it has pain and redness.
Main consern is - day by day it is NOT getting better.
What should be the next appropriate step? Any medicine?
It can be erythroplakia or desquamative gingivitis. Take antioxidants along with multivitamin supplements. You can consult through this for prescription of medication and instructions on investigations to confirm diagnosis. Get your teeth cleaned by a dentist.
