Pus forming in last tooth gum
Hi Doctor,
I am having a problem in my last tooth, seems new tooth is growing but it's forming pus in my last tooth gum also after draining the pus , it's bleeding.
In my last tooth gum I can see one big hole and into that when I tried to see there is some white thing seems like a new tooth, but not sure.
Also due to this problem I'm experiencing a very bad breath.
Attaching the picture of my tooth where this problem is growing. You can see in my last tooth gum there is one hole appearing.
