Okay, first of all, I am a bit chubby so I got self obessed with losing weight because I didnt want to lose weight the slow way but excercising and eating healthy. So I thought why not try bulimic because my best friend is and she is thin. Iv tried to stop her and stuff but she won t listen to me so I told myself to do it for a little while. I was bulimic, only did it for a week not even..but the thing is I stopped like 4-5days ago, the problem is...You know in my mouth, top gum? well it is sore, like i have cuts, I cant even explain how it feels like a tiny hole bump? like () this. anyways but it hurts when I eat and it isnt going away so I was wondering what causes that, acid or what? also how long does it take for the gum to heal from the acid? or will it get worst even if i stopped?

It could be from your fingernails or if you're using something else to purge. But yes the acid does a number to your mouth... especially the enamel on your teeth. I would say it should heal up in about a week if you don't purge anymore...

Swish the area with warm salt water about 3-4 times a day.

yes it will heal just give it time and swish with warm salt water three to four times a day and as for being bulimic that's good you stopped. just do it the slow way so it stays off. and as for your friend you should get her some help because people die form this disease.

It will heal just give it time. As for the bullimia, if you continue your whole body will shut down on you. Your gums are just the start of it.
