[|Human|] my gums started bleeding around one of my teeth and i cant get it to stop.  I floss regularly there is no pain and wasnt eating or anything else when it started.  I tried the salt water rinse still bleeding have gauze in now but still bleeding.  Any suggestions?
[|AI|]  Hello:)Welcome to Chat Doctor. You did not mention if you are taking any blood thinners like aspirin, warfarin etc. for general health. Apply a local pressure to temporarily stop bleeding. Keep a sterile gauze or cotton over the tooth for 2-3 minutes and apply pressure with your finger. Apply cold pack in the area. I suggest you to consult your dentist to check if there is any local trauma or infection. Also get your blood test done for bleeding, clotting times, and INR. Regards.
