I have a tiny boil on the gum which has no pain. I do not want to negect it. I have started applying aloe ver gel on it Aloe vera grow in our garden I will have to do it repeatedly several times in the day I will aso gargle with warm salt water. Hope it will give me relief and the gum boil will disappear. What is your approach?

When I had one I went to see my dentist, it was an infection and he treated it.

If there is pus and pain then it sure needs the dentist's attention

That sounds an effective way to get rid of a gum boil.

I hope your treatment of the boil works. I never heard of using aloe on something inside your mouth.

Aloe vera is edible.

Well, Aloe Vera is good for a start because it will soften the gum tissue and make it easier for the liquid inside to be eliminated (once in bursts open)
