Want to know: What you are seeing may be normal anatomy. On the other hand, may be sign of a serious problem. Rule of thumb is that any pain and/or swelling and/or bleeding should be immediately examined. Please schedule an appointment with a local Dentist. Explain your concerns. Let an expert examine you and give you a knowledgeable answer.
