Constant mild gum pain
I've noticed a constant mild gum pain in the front of lower jaw since 4-5 days now. It started abruptly. Should I be applying ointments like Hexigel over there or do something else?

Gum inflammations must be dealt with seriously. If left untreated can result in loosening of your teeth.
If you apply any ointment it might suppress the pain but won't resolve the root cause of the problem.
