A swollen gum bag can be picked, but it should be operated by a professional doctor, not by yourself to avoid infection. Swollen gum pockets are mostly due to gum inflammation or periapical inflammation caused by food residue embedding, periodontal disease, etc., resulting in gum abscess. If the abscess is picked by oneself, it may cause secondary infection due to incomplete disinfection of tools and improper treatment after pus drainage, causing facial swelling and also leading to recurrence of the abscess, which is not conducive to wound healing. Therefore, in case of gum abscess, root canal or periodontal treatment should be carried out at the dental hospital in time, and if the abscess is serious, surgical incision and drainage treatment is feasible. If there is a swelling in the gums, you should go to the dentistry department for dental X-ray examination in order to clarify the cause and treat the problem. At the same time, you should also pay attention to a light diet, do not eat spicy and stimulating food, maintain oral hygiene, brush your teeth in the morning and evening, and clean your teeth regularly to protect your dental health.
