Can u bust an abscess on your gums

Yes: But it often indicates an abcess in a tooth and may well require a root canal. If not addressed properly it can be very destructive to the surrounding bone. It is best for you to have it seen about soon with your dentist.

You can...: ...But you will still have an infection underneath and a tooth that needs to be treated. See your dentist sooner than later for an exam and consultation.

Sure: But that will be a very temporary fix. The gum will heal and swell again. See a dentist asap for definitive diagnosis and treatment.

Yes: But this is not a good idea. Not only is it unlikely to cure the condition, but if allowed to persist the infection may extend into the bones of the jaw, extend into soft tissues of the face and neck, get into the blood stream and cause endocarditis and brain abscesses and other unpleasant and potentially life-threatening illnesses. Go see a dentist asap.
