Pain in the gums after orthodontic treatment?

I recently had my braces removed and put on retainers. The day i removed the braces and put the retainers, everything was perfect but from the 3rd day onwards i am feeling pain in the lower gums under two teeth. This pain is now still there even after 1 month of retainer wear. Does anyone know the cause and remedy for this?My orthodontist is clueless.

Joint Pain Treatment, Treat Joint Pain

Joint pain is also referred to as arthralgia. Pain in any form is our body’s way of telling us that there is something wrong and joint pain is therefore telling us that there is something wrong in and around the that area. The pain is caused by injury to and around the area for example ligaments, bursea tendons or even the bone it self may have suffered some kind of trauma which is causing the pain.

There are hundreds of arthritis pain treatment modalities that are available in the market today, and most of these are in the form of pharmacological agents or drugs. Pain relievers or analgesics are on top of the list and are often recommended by physicians to their client to ease the arthritis pain. There are also topical pain agents that can be applied over the swollen joint area to relieve the inflammation that causes the severe and throbbing pain.

Joint pain s could be symptoms of serious problems associated with serious diseases like arthritis, gout, osteoarthritis, tendonitis, rheumatoid arthritis or even infections. The pain could affect not only your joints but your whole body as in could cause the patient to become immobile. Even the livelihood, job, interaction with friends and family could also be affected when a person suffers from joint pain. Taking over the counter drug pain relievers are usually not enough to cure the pain because it could become recurrent over time.

Since many things can cause joint pain, such as injury, repetitive use, arthritis, tendonitis, gout or even viral infections, it’s important to rule out anything more serious. At the doctor’s office, expect her to ask you several questions about your joint pain to determine whether or not your pain is the result of arthritis. Expect to explain about the location, severity and duration of your joint pain. Also expect her to ask about what aggravates your joint pains and what you use to treat it.

Most doctors now also recommend the patients adopt a healthy lifestyle for prevention as well as cure of joint pains. This includes regular exercise, balanced diet, minimal mental stress and short breaks between long hours of working. Patients who are overweight always get great relief by reducing their weight, as excess weight puts extra stress on certain joints, causing acute pain and often-irreparable damage.

The problem is that the joint pain cannot be treated and cured this way; at least not without knowing what is causing them. Some exercises for instance are good for arthritis but not appropriate for some other disease, such as bursitis, or inflammation. Tendonitis, rheumatic disorders or hormonal imbalances require a different treatment and different approach. Doctors need to know what the real problem is so as to provide the proper help.

Everytime I breath it hurts.
Everytime I bend over or lean over it hurts.
I don’t have money to see a doctor.
But I want to know if there is a cure for it
without getting operated.
