Swollen gum
My gum is badly swollen due to cavity. Since I am right now located at a remote area where I don't have access to dental check up for two days I need your help in telling me the immediate relief. I am under immense pain. Please it's a request since I don't have any medical facility for two days. I am already using Colgate place for rinsing and doing warm water and rock salt gargle two to three times.
