PLEASE!** Does anyone know what this is? It's not a tooth and I don't feel a tooth behind it. It's some sort of "flesh" coming out of my daughter's gum.

@laywatz Yes, you're right. Perhaps that's what it is. I'm going to go read up on it.

This pic looked a lot like what your daughter has.. it was labeled a bohn nodule

Sher Kadi · Answer

@laywatz I just Googled the term, I'm not sure that the pictures I saw look like hers. Ugh, I can't  wait  for Monday to come so I can ask her Doctor. I'm  hoping she's not  in pain and just tolerating it well.

Maybe a Bohn nodule

Sher Kadi · Answer

@lovelily She seem to have a little discomfort (she sticks her finger there and bites down on it hard), but no great deal of pain and no fever.

Answer

Does it hurt? It could be an abscess.
