What's up with my gums?!
Question: What's up with my gums.?
Well ever since a few days ago my gums have started to hurt. I noticed it when I brushed my teeth, they bleed and hurt at 2 specific spots. Then I looked at them closely in the mirror and I realized that it looks like a cut on the gums in between my second premolar and first premolar teeth. What is this.? And should I head to the dentist or wait it out.?
I don't get it, I religiously brush my teeth twice a day everyday! I don't floss that often though, maybe twice a week. Could that be the reason.?Health Question & Answer

Answers:
you could have gingivitis.
symptoms include:
-Swelling, redness, pain, and bleeding of the gums are signs of gingivitis.
-The breath begins to take on a foul odor.
-The gums begin to lose their normal structure and color. The gums, which were once strong and pink, begin to recede and take on a beefy red, inflamed color.
-Inflammation-a complex system by which bacteria-fighting cells of the body are recruited to an area of bacterial infection-plays a major role in gingivitis. It is this inflammation of the gums that accounts for most of the symptoms of gingivitis.
