Hi, may I answer your health queries right now ?  Please type your query here... My wisdom tooth is poking through my gums pain is on and off, but now there is green puss coming out from under my gum line do i need antibiotics? Or will it heal on its own? Thanks
Hello thanks for your question at Chat Doctor. Wisdom tooth need to be examined by x-ray. If there is enough space then we can let it erupt in mouth. If there isn't enough space, then it needs to be removed. In your case its poking, paining and discharging green pus. So yes you need antibiotics. You can go for amoxicillin if you are not having penicillin allergy. You should also take painkiller medicine if pain is severe. And get one x-ray of that tooth by nearby dentist. You can ask for further queries if you find any confusion. Wish you happy health.
