not quite my mouth, but a tiny area of my gums under my teeth on the right hand side of my lower jaw. its an annoying stinging pain especially if i rub it intentionally with my fingers or just my the usual movements with my cheek.
Not sure what it is maybe its an infection? it was pretty painful so my friends game me 2 shots of rum and the pain went away.

Sounds like a canker sore to me. Put some cream of tartar on it three times a day. Heals it right up.

But where is he going to find a tartar to cream this time of year!? Posted by sarahdipity (Member # 3254) on :
While it may hurt the first time you might try gargling with warm salt water.

And I know for a fact it does NOT help to attack the canker sore with sharp objects. It really only makes it angrier.

But if you deal a knock-out blow and defeat the sore once and for all...

Telp, dear. Who would Blayne be snogging with?
Blayne, you can use ambisol to numb it, but it's probably best to let it run it's course.
And drink plenty of Orange Juice(*)
To prevent them in the future, use good oral hygene. Brush morning and night and floss before bed. Flossing is just as important as the brushing for this.
