Hi. I am from the Philippines. It s exactly one week now that my lymph nodes are swelling. Five days ago, crank sores started to built inside my mouth. I have one under my tounge, and then others look like pus in the gums. I have pus on my upper and lower gums. My tounge started to feel painful. My denstist recommended me to take amoxicillin 500 3 times a day and vitamin C .. she recommended also Pyralvex solution. I am also gargling Bactidol. It had been a week now that I am not feeling well. I eat almost nothing for it s painful to swallow and bite. please help.
Hi. As per the information provided by you, I can see that you are having acute periodontitis where there is acute infection in your gums.I would suggest tetracycline instead of penicillin, as tetracycline is more effective in soft tissue infections, the treatment for periodontitis should have been started also. I don't think that your present dentist is capable of solving your problem. She should have started the treatment long back. Consult a periodontist. He will guide you to perfect dental health after properly diagnosing and doing periodontal surgery and saving most of your teeth. Take care.
