I'm sorry to hear about your constant dry mouth, throbbing front teeth, bleeding gums, and blood in your saliva. These symptoms can be concerning and require proper medical attention. Unfortunately, as a language model, I cannot provide medical advice or diagnoses. However, I can offer some general information and suggest you reach out to a qualified healthcare professional for personalized guidance.
Here are some potential causes of your symptoms:
dry mouth: this can be caused by various factors, including medications, underlying medical conditions like sjogren's syndrome, or simply dehydration.
Throbbing front teeth: this could indicate dental issues like tooth decay, abscesses, or sensitivity.
Bleeding gums and blood in saliva: this is often a sign of gum disease (gingivitis) or periodontitis, but it can also be caused by trauma, certain medications, or vitamin deficiencies.
Given your history of h. Pylori infection and duodenal ulcer, it's important to discuss these symptoms with your doctor or dentist, as they could be related to those past issues. Additionally, your current medications or any recent changes in your health or lifestyle could also be influencing these symptoms.
Here are some things you can do until you can see a healthcare professional:
stay hydrated: drink plenty of water throughout the day to combat dry mouth.
Practice good oral hygiene: brush and floss your teeth gently twice a day and use a mouthwash if recommended by your dentist.
Avoid irritants: limit your intake of sugary drinks, alcohol, and tobacco, as these can worsen your symptoms.
Use a humidifier: this can help add moisture to the air and relieve dry mouth symptoms.
Remember, self-diagnosis and treatment can be dangerous, so please reach out to a qualified healthcare professional for proper evaluation and personalized advice. They can perform a thorough examination, run any necessary tests, and develop a treatment plan specific to your needs.
I hope this information is helpful. Please prioritize your health and seek medical attention to address these concerning symptoms. Wishing you all the best in recovering from this.
