My gum is swollen around wisdom tooth that is not fully in yet. My tonsil on same side is slightly swollen as well. Im not sick or having any symptoms in my throat area other than soreness outside of my mouth around my neck in same spot as wisdom tooth and tonsil. What do you recommend since I am not showing signs of a sickness and my mouth inside is pink/red normal color no spots on tonsil either.?
Hi, With your query, Nothing to worry about it anyway you are symptomless. This is normal to happen like this and usually gums will be swollen before eruption and this not exactly the swelling in fact it is nothing but the tooth is trying to pierce the gum so that it will make its way into oral cavity that's it. Coming to your tonsil problem in some patients it happens especially when wisdom tooth is erupting slight to mild inflammation of those surrounding might appear but its normal. Wait for the complete eruption of tooth if you have any symptoms then you can visit your dentist/Oral surgeon who will examine and prescribe Chat Doctor. Till then be cool to enjoy your life. Hope this helps you
