Hi,
I was covid positive 8 weeks back with mild symptoms . I recovered at home without any tablets and non diabetic.
I have pain in gums from 2 days and sometimes tooth ache. Is it black fungus?

Clinical examination mandatory.
Go for dental check up.
Pls reveal in case you are pregnant or a lactating mother.
For time being take T.calpol 650, for symptomatic relief which has no side effect.

Hello dear

See this discomfort could be due to dental caries or gingivitis because in covid definitely oral hygiene is not maintained since brushing requires dexterity.it does seems to be black fungus.however for further details you can consult me

Hello ma'm,
You have pain related to tooth & gums might be because of dental decay .For exact diagnosis can you share clinical photograph of the teeth & area in question for better consultation ? Or you can visit dentist for further clinical examination & treatment accordingly.
