I have gum inflammation from teenage years now am in 30s it bleeds rarely but swelling doesn't reduce though from many years am waiting for it to come to normal...

Ans: Hello
You have not mentioned whether you have consulted a dentist for your gum inflammation and were treated in the past for the same.
The most common cause for gum inflammation is poor oral hygiene. Inadequate or improper brushing can lead to accumulation of tartar or calculus which in turn leads to gum inflammation. This tartar or calculus has to be cleaned (the process is called scaling) periodically by a qualified dentist in order to maintain gum health. The recommended frequency can be determined by your dentist after periodic check ups.
If you have gum inflammation despite regular check ups and cleaning, other factors could be responsible.
Certain medicines which need to be taken on a regular basis are known to cause swelling of the gums. Hormonal imbalances can also affect the gums. To rule out these extra-oral factors, your medical history and medication will have to evaluated and adjusted by a General Physician.

Ans: Hello Ajay
If you've had a swelling for last 6 months and it's not responding to medication you need to go for further investigations like xrays and/or biopsy. I'm sure your dentist can guide you in this matter.
And please stop using tobacco in any form before it causes any more damage.

Question by Rehan - Mar 23, 2024Hindi

Health

Hello Sir I am 44 years old male. Around 20 days back i have removed the dry skin from my lips. The soft tissue of my lips which appeared is not healing. I have used boroline and Vaseline on my lips. The soft tissue has become red and bleeding and not healing. I am also having bleeding gum problem. For bleeding gum I did tooth scaling two weeks back and using mouthwash and a medicated toothpaste prescribed by my dentist but the gums bleeding problem is still there. Thank you in advance for your advice on my both issues.

Ans: Hello
The most common causes for chapped lips are dry weather or dehydration. They should heal with a little self-help in 2 to 3 weeks. If they don't, there's a possibility of underlying conditions causing it. Such as vitamin deficiency or infection.
The same holds true for gum bleeding. If the bleeding was caused only by local factors such as build-up of tartar and poor oral hygiene then the bleeding should stop or at least reduce substantially after scaling. If it hasn't, we need to rule out underlying causes.
Both problems are easily treatable once the cause is identified. Please consult a competent dermatologist/dentist.

Health

i am having two polyps at gums, please suggest the medicine.

Ans: Hello Venkatesh
Please consult your dentist.
In my opinion gum polyps cannot be treated with medicines alone. They may require surgical removal. Please do not be intimidated. It's a very, very minor procedure.
Also the cause has to be identified and suitably treated to prevent recurrence. So please do not rely on home remedies or medicines alone.

Hello sir, my daughter currently pursuing bams final year after that there will be internship of one year. But she is not intersted in bams at all so what would be other career options for her in future ? And if I insist her to do PG in Bams then how much she earn she doesnot want to do government job ,then what will she can do after that.?

Ans: When she is not interested in BAMS then when did she take admission. It's a professional course. In non professional course it can be managed. But in professional course if one can't accept it then it becomes dangerous for the career and he/she is bound to fail in that line. So never allow her to pursue PG. After completion of BAMS let her decide whether she wants to do a admin job or not. If yes then let her pursue MBA. She can do MBA in hospital management. If she doesn't want the atmosphere of Hospital then she can choose other streams like HR/Finance/Operation etc. Just follow me. Best of luck. MAY GOD BLESS HER. Professor......................:)
