What causes yellow tooth after taking antibiotics in a kid?
Hello doctor,
My 16 months old was on a 10 day antibiotic for a bad throat infection. It looks like one of her teeth has gone a bit yellow after it. Is that normal to happen with an antibiotic?

My gum bleeding stopped with Metrogyl and Tan X ointment. Will it recur?
Hi doctor,
I have been getting bleeding from the gums for the past month. It is generalized. When I get up, maximum blood comes from my mouth in the morning. It is better to rest of the day. I did a salt water rinse and applied Tan X ointment, but nothing helped. I started taking Metrogyl 400 mg twice a day for two days, and the bleeding stopped. Still, little inflammation is there. My only worry is its recurrence. As of now, I am fine.

Why is there a swelling at the site of wisdom tooth removal?
Hello doctor,
I just had my wisdom tooth removal surgery 10 days back. The surgery was on the lower right side as my wisdom tooth was impacted and was inside the bone. Hence, I had to remove it as there was some TMJ discomfort. My recovery is going fine there is no numbness and I just want to take your suggestion on one thing. I still have a swelling type thing on my right side jaw where surgery happened, though my right cheek is fine. I just want to know, in how many weeks my jaw will be fine as there is something that I can feel like swelling or a hard lump near to my surgery area. When I do open my mouth there is pressure on my right side jaw. Since there is no pain, I just want to know that when can I expect my jaw swelling or hard lump in the surgery area to be fine?
Thank you.
