For the last few days my gums have hurt so bad I can't even eat, that and a really painful kanker sore deep in my right cheek. It started about Tuesday (03/25/08), I had been sick with the flu 2 days, but noticed I had been neglecting my oral hygeine about a week, so i brush, it wasn't pretty, the new tooth brush i had got the bristles were very hard, they tore my mouth up, it was like i was brushing with shards of glass on a stick, my poor gums were just massivley hemmoraging all over, it took several minutes of constant rinsing for the bleeding to stop. Once it did is when the fun began, just beofre that bought of brushing i was getting the aformentioned cold sore, then the painful gums, strange my gums only hurt on the back side, like behind my front top teeth, not the front side, bottom too same thing.
I've always had some gingivitis, I hope it's not something like trench mouth, i think my new brush is just a tad to hard.
