I waited 2 hours to put myself through hell.
My gum swelled with pus yesterday and i knew something bad had happened. I prayed that it would be fine. But it wasn't.
I had a re-infection. The infection aggravated and now it has affected the gum area right inside, almost the root.
The doctor drilled a hole in the base of the affected tooth and pus flowed out. Digusting but true. Then after much cleaning, he closed it and i thought everything was over.
But the worse has yet to come.
In order to remove the pus from the gum, he used some scaling device and dug my gums from the bottom all the way up to the swelling. It was excrutiating. The pain was unbearable but i couldn't do anything. I teared alot.
Now,I have a big maroon coloured hole in my gum which is totally disgusting. And i pray that the infection will go away . It is really serious this time. I was given several medication, including antibiotics. I am really really worried. Sometimes i wonder why everyone else can heal but i can't. Why did my infection come back?
Lord, i pray that my tooth can be cured and the infection will disappear forever.
The dentist told me the outcome of the tooth is not good. And if the infection dont heal,i will be referred to a specialist. That sounded extremely serious i thought. I hope everything will be fine or else i have to undergo more torment.
I came out of the hospital feeling really terrible. I couldn't say a thing. Even with anaesthesia, my gum still hurt. It really really feels horrid to have your gum being treated like that and being uncertain about what will happen next.
I'm hoping that everything will turn out fine. I dont want to go for any sort of operation.

Sigh. why happiness won't last. I was just so happy a few days ago and was looking forward to everything but why must it end so quickly.
I am not going for band tomorrow with my gum in such a state.
