What should mothers do if their gums are swollen and painful during breastfeeding?

Spring is the season when people are most likely to get angry. Both children and breastfeeding mothers are very likely to get angry in this season, which can easily lead to swollen and painful gums. So what should breastfeeding mothers do if their gums are swollen and painful? In fact, there are four methods. The first method is to hold ginger slices in your mouth, which can effectively relieve toothache.

1. Ginger slices can effectively relieve toothache

Ginger can relieve toothache because it contains ingredients such as gingerol, shogaol, citral and capsaicin, which have anti-inflammatory, analgesic and bactericidal effects.

When you have a toothache, just cut a small piece of ginger and bite it on the handle to relieve the pain. It is reusable and can be left in your mouth while you sleep at night.

2. Three tips for curing toothache with garlic

Method 1: When you have a toothache, break the tip of the garlic clove to let the garlic juice overflow, and rub it on the handle several times to relieve the pain.

Method 2: Mash the garlic and apply a small amount on the Hegu acupoints on both hands. It has a good analgesic effect on allergic toothache.

Method three: Peel the garlic and cook it on the stove. Cut it while it is still hot and use it to iron the painful tooth. Replace the garlic after it cools down. Repeat this process several times. When people with caries have toothache, they can pick out the contents of the cavity and stuff some mashed garlic into it to relieve pain and prevent decay.

3. Peppercorns for toothache

Method 1: Put 1-2 peppercorns into the affected area and bite them hard. The toothache will stop after half a minute.

Method 2: Take 5-10 grams of dried Sichuan peppercorns, put them in a small stainless steel pot, add appropriate amount of pure water, bring to a boil on the fire and then cook for 3-5 minutes. After cooling, add 50 grams of white wine (Erguotou is fine). After it cools down, filter the Sichuan pepper water and pour it into a small glass bottle. When you have a toothache, dip cotton in this water and plug it into the painful area and bite down on it. It is more effective if you put it into a tooth cavity.

4. Vinegar for toothache

Method 1: When your teeth are painful, you can rinse your mouth with vinegar boiled with wolfberry and white hyacinth, which has a significant analgesic effect. Moreover, adding a few drops of vinegar to the toothpaste when brushing your teeth can remove smoke and tea stains on your teeth and keep your teeth white.
