Hemorrhagic gingivitis (plural - gingivitis hemorrhage), or erosive edema form of gingivitis, is a condition of inflammation of the gum tissue, in which bleeding areas form on the surface of the mucous membrane.
Hemorrhagic gingivitis is a form of gingivitis, which is characterized by the presence of hemorrhages on the gums and oral mucosa. This disease can be caused by various reasons such as infections, injuries, allergies and other factors.
Symptoms of hemorrhagic gingivitis may include swollen gums, bleeding, pain, bad breath, and mucosal ulcers. Treatment of gingivitis is the use of antibiotics, rinsing the mouth with antiseptics, and the use of local anti-inflammatory drugs.
The causes of gingivitis can vary, including infections such as tooth decay, gum disease, viruses and bacteria, and allergies.
Symptoms of gingivitis include swelling of the soft tissues of the teeth and bleeding on the gums. During inflammation, the color of the gums becomes red, and slight necrosis of the gums (death of tissue) is possible.
For gingivitis caused by metabolic disorders, detoxification should be carried out - removing toxic compounds from the blood. Supplement therapy with anti-inflammatory drugs. If the cause of changes in the body is a viral disease, interferon-based drugs and vitamins are prescribed. Antifungal drugs are used to combat fungi. When tissue concentrations of proinflammatory interleukins are high, the use of selective corticosteroids is required. Surgery to remove tartar is indicated in advanced cases of gingivitis. In such situations, medications that act locally in the mouth are prescribed to relieve symptoms.
