So I've had a gum infection for a few days now since my tooth was pulled. I'm taking my penicillin now on top of all my other meds. It's driving me nuts. I been doing mouth wash twice a day too so hopefully it will go away soon. No idea how I got it but it hurts at times. Prayers please it heals soon.

@carebear29 That's great then. Does it still hurt even just a bit?

Did they stitch the gum where the tooth was pulled @carebear29 ? You could have what is called a Dry Socket which is different from an infection. You could have possibly gotten some food particles down in the hole. Try rinsing really well with Baking Soda and water.

I haven't had a gum infection. Hope it will not stay for too long and it heals fast.
