Gums Hurt!


Gums start to hurt since the beginning of the year, after I came back from the dentist. Comments made by the dentist weren't very pessimistic. Not sure if she's out to scare me, I start to feel pains in my gums.

I need to extract a cracked molar. I wanted to extract before CNY but mom says if I were to do it before CNY, I might not be able to consume food during CNY.

I started to experience pain and mom reckon it might be that I was 'heaty' as the cracked molar wasn't painful when I pressed hard on it. It was the lower gums that was painful. Hence, I took a panadol which suppressed the pain to a minimum.

Everything went well until CNY eve. I had one packet of chilli tapioca and one piece of bak gua that night. The next day, the pain came!

I endured the pain until second day of Lunar month. I took a panadol but it seems that the pain just wouldn't subside. I checked using a mirror and saw something whitish surfacing my gums. I tried to feel it but couldn't feel anything. I hope it's not wisdom tooth growing :(

I think I'll take another panadol tonight before I sleep. It's so painful that it's affecting my mood :(
