Gum Infection/ Pulse

Hi. I have gum infection due to my wisdom teeth. I am pregnant so I can get them extracted now . But my dentist prescribed Tylenol and amoxicillin now the question is my gum turned red like it was bloodshot after my first dosage of the antibiotics then the next day I discovered that it became really soft and had like a pulse... few hours later blood and what not came out of the pulse and it felt numb like I wasn't feeling any pain again but it's still swollen a bit . Is that it healing? Or I should be worried

It sounds like you had an abscess infection, and it drained. I experienced many of them, myself, before I finally got rid of all my teeth and got dentures.

You should definitely finish the antibiotics, and consult your doctor, or dentist, if you experience any other problems. You will, however, have to have the teeth taken care of, as soon as you have the baby, because otherwise there is a risk of the infection returning.

The Amoxicillin may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash, and diarrhea.

How are you feeling, now?
