12934254 tn?1427839628 Hmmm thats kinda weird. Right now my gums at the top behind my front teeth are swollen. They looks like swollen bumps. It happens to me every pregnancy because of the hormones and baby taking all of my nutrients from my teeth. Maybe thats what is going on with you?
Avatar m tn if i've had a few white bumps on my gums, but they aren't open, and i've had them for a while, do you think it might be herpes?
Avatar f tn 1mm) whitish colored bumps on my gums where they were irritated. My gums in this area were quite inflamed and sore. I was able to get in to see my dentist on the Monday and he said it was a common problem and nothing to worry about....something like a cold sore. Nothing more was said as he handed me a prescription for Valacyclovir (two 2000mg doses 12 hours apart). I phoned him back on the Friday and told him that there was no change in my condition.
Avatar n tn I'm 12 years old and I have tonsillitis, I also have a swollen roof as well swollen gums. I've noticed small bumps on my tounge and just because of all of that I can't eat/swallow. If your better now can you tell me how you cured it?
Avatar m tn Now, everything in my mouth on my infected side is swollen but not necessarily painful. My gums, tonsil, and arch behind the uvula on my left side are bigger than they should be. I also have a white circle discoloration on the roof of my mouth, but it's not a bump and it doesn't hurt. Is that an ulcer? Other symptoms I've noticed I have include bad breath, nausea, coughing (more so now than before), diarrhea, and some black on my gums (maybe gum disease?).
Avatar n tn Now i have 7 or 8 teeth rotting out it seems from the gum out, my gums are bloody sore and aggravating. My teeth ache all the time and sometime the pain gets so bad it hurts behind my eye in my head and in my ears.Some of the teeth have small holes forming on them and one has a black spot. The others have since broke in half or close and have black bumps exposed and whenever i eat or drink anything it hurts terribly. This wasn't that bad until i got pregnant now it is so much worse.
Avatar n tn It doesn't really feel like anything, there's just small little rough looking bumps on the gums of my front teeth. A couple of them look white in color. I've had them for a while now and I either didn't notice the whiter ones or they've just appeared recently...not sure. However, is this caused by gums healing? I have gingivitis and over the past couple of months I've changed my habits to help it and now I'm using an antimicrobial mouthwash.
Avatar f tn These have come with red marks on the roof of my mouth towards my throat and I can feel a spot/sore on my gums behind my front bottom teeth that I can't see well enough. It's been a week now and they're looking like they'll be gone within 2 days I'd say. During the...event he kissed me and sucked on the inside of my lower lip and it really hurt and I'm concerned that this may have opened up an entry point to infection.
Avatar n tn I've had some small whitish bumps that are pretty flat against the gums. In addition, my tongue has a white coating. (Nothing to unusual about it.) I had oral sex about 8 weeks ago. They showed up about 2-3 weeks later. The doctor does not seem to be to concerned about it but it is really making me worried if it is HIV. I keep reading that HIV is very highly unlikely to be transmitted via oral sex but everywhere else I read that you REALLY need to be tested for it. What else can it be?
6528681 tn?1382147006 Oh, I forgot to say the 7 or 8 bumps, that I have didn't start out that way... It started with swollen gums and 2 swollen bags of skin( they were larger in size) between my teeth.... when I busted the swollen abcesses... the white bumps formed....
Avatar n tn Sexually transmitted diseases, cancer and allergic reactions are some medical conditions that can present symptoms of white bumps on the lips. One common cause for white bumps on tongue is yeast infection. In this condition white bumps may appear more like white patches that are painful when touched. White little bumps can also be caused by an inflammatory condition called oral lichen planus.
Avatar m tn I have white bumps on my gums I have been looking up gum disease and periodontitis and I think I have perioddontitis I have two of them on my upper gums one on the left and one on the right but the one on my left seems like it went down and is flat like now but is still white now the one on my right is still there and I can't tell if it got slightly bigger or is still the same though.

Avatar f tn I have had a problem with very sore gums that bleed when brushed, blisters on gums sometimes and on back of tongue and small red bumps on back of tongue as well. The bumps and blisters on my tongue have not went away but do not bother me anymore but my gums are still very sore and bleed. This has lasted for about 3 months and I had swollen lymoh nodes in my neck for a few weeks in the beggining but that went away.
Avatar m tn Hey i had the same red bump and i scratched it off nd it literally went away about a week ago but now i have like a small white bump looking thing in my lower gums right behind my lip i had it twice before but it always went away i doubt u got it from a girl cause i haven made out with one in over a month but im not sure i have braces too but only at the top i dont know what it is either but i dont smoke or rinse with salt water either so if you find out what u have please!
Avatar m tn I have been suffering from sharp pain behind my nose, to be precise behind the nose bridge. It hurts only when I press/push my nose. I checked my upper gums I don't feel any pain there. As far as I could feel I have no pain in the sinuses i.e. in my cheek bones or in the sides of my nose.
Avatar m tn OK i have these little bumps around my pubic hair region. Some are little then some are big. They remind me of pimples or bumps similar to pimples. I can buss them and when i do puss like substance comes out, right after that blood starts to come also. I'm not sexaully active as far as havin sex or oral sex, so i dont know what this could possibly mean. They tend to go away and then come back a week or two later. Please Someone Help!!!!.
6528681 tn?1382147006 I had oral sex with someone and I developed after a week small white bumps on my lower lip and gums. The doctor has given me antibiotics, but it hasn't went away. He told me to take acyclovir and that didn't resolve the issue either... Now, he tried an oral fungal medication and that hasn't worked either. I am going nuts... I learned a big lesson from this.... But, what can this be??? He just put me on Zithromax now... and told me to gargle with listerine several times a day....
Avatar m tn About 10 days later I started to develop a sore throat which, three weeks later, persists. Recently, the skin behind my lower gums peeled back. I have not developed a fever but I did recently notice some very small red bumps on my trunk, some of which itch. I also have pain sometimes in my chest where the muscle connects to the armpit, and sometimes in my groin as well. I have been extremely anxious since my possible exposure. I had a DNA-PCR test performed by LabCorp 13 days after exposure.
Avatar f tn On the bottom left of my mouth behind the last tooth the gums hurt really bad, even if I eat just a banana. Could it be my wisdom tooth? How do I tell? Or do I just have to wait it out?
Avatar f tn My gums have been hurting for about three days. I had a dental cleaning about a week and a half ago and everything seemed to be normal. Now, when i brush my teeth or touch, pucker my cheeks and lips, my lower gums ache. Its not the area near my teeth that hurt but by my lower jaw where my teeth are growing that it hurts. I read online that periodontits causes this but i'm not sure that this is what i have because my dentist said my teeth and gums were fine.
Avatar n tn So for about two years now, I've had these bumps located directly behind my ear on my skull. I went to a doctor about 8 months after they initially showed up and he didn't really know what they were. He said to wait a while and see if they go away on their own. I'm pretty sure that they're swollen lymph nodes. I feel completely healthy and have had no past history of any health issues.
Avatar m tn There is a very sensitive spot right below my right nostril, then when touched with a little pressure, send a shooting pain from the bottom of my nose, into my gums. Perhaps it is some nerve damage from the accident I had. I am not sure, and was never given an answer on this. My reason for posting, is that roughly a week and a half ago, I noticed a lump forming behind my front two teeth, on the roof of my mouth. It was a bit annoying, and I started to touch and press on it with my tongue.
Avatar m tn Oh, this bleeding is from next to/behind the wisdom teeth. Thanks!
Avatar m tn Hello, while recently looking for tonsil stones I noticed a couple of lumps on the skin behind my tonsils (I'm not sure what that area is called?). I've had the feeling of something in my throat, so that is why I was checking for the stones. I didn't find any stones, but I'm curious about the lumps. They don't hurt, per se, but I'm not sure if they're supposed to be there. I've had heartburn for the past few years, could that be the cause of them?
Avatar f tn About an week ago, I found these white spots and tiny little bumps on my gums. They don't hurt, but they are little dry. I tried to wash it off, but it wouldn't come off, but after I woke up next morning from day I found them, it looks like it has gotten bit smaller and paler (I don't mean more white). My own dentist said it most likely is nothing serious and is maybe flu related (I had flu 1 week ago and have still little bit) or fungus. I'm still not sure what to think.
