Answers:
If numbing it isn't working anymore, I would suggest you see your doctor. He can evaluate your situation and suggest appropriate treatment. I would see your doc ASAP, as you state they are getting bigger and you are having trouble eating. Your mouth is full of bacteria which can cause infection. Get treated soon and feel better.Health Question & Answer
