I came back from Hawaii and my mouth first started swelling inside on my gums near my mouth all around, then my throat starting hurting and now my gums are better and my tonsils are swollen really really bad. Should I try to get a dr. appt for antibiotics or is it viral?
Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query. The swollen gums could be because of the gum infection and hurting throat could be a bacterial infection. The swollen gums can be treated by cleaning teeth and maintaining the oral hygiene after that. Throat infection can be treated by taking a course of antibiotics. Do saline gargling. Consult your oral physician and get treatment and prescription. I hope my answer will help you.
