Hi, I recently probed behind my left last molar with my tongue and discovered it was an unusual feeling but I disregarded it as bits of food. This was until I brushed my teeth and it was not coming out so I attempted to pinch it out with ny hands which caused bleeding but then I eventually got out a part of it but there is still a bit left between the molar and the gum nd it keeps bleeding now. If this isn t a bit of food what could it be?
Hello, first it's very difficult to assess from your description as your last molar can be second molar or third/wisdom too. And the bleeding from gums is due to food lodgment and subsequent infection of region. It is a typical peritonitis case if your third molar is in eruption stage. Ur age is b/w18-25. Then food lodgment is commonest in region.  Use a good interdental aid to clean the area along with frequent gargle with mouthwashes and gum massage. Get radiograph done of the region to assess bone pattern in the region or any erupting tooth.if all is fine in radiograph, get professional cleaning and try to maintain proper oral hygiene with regular follow-up visits.
