A member asked:

Bit gum with my tooth and now i have a small blood blister. what can i do to make this heal fast?

3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

Warm salt rinses: The blister will need to heal on it's own, but if it is a bit swollen in the area, warm salt water rinses several times a day will help it along.

It takes time: It takes several weeks for a blood blister to resolve. Sucking on something cold such as ice or ices will make it feel better.
