what does it feel like when wisdom teeth are coming in? The right side of my gum (behind my molars) is extremely irratated and when i touch it with either my thumb (or gently poke it) with my finger, it hurts a lot. Is this another tooth coming in?? Or did i somehow injure my gums?

when my wisdom teeth came in, i experienced severe headaches and jaw pain. I just had to go to a dentist to confirm if I need them out.
Depending on how much room there is in your mouth or if they will interfere with your current teeth, you may need them out.
I did not experience any bleeding like you mentioned.
Sounds like you need to go to the dentist and get things checked out... gingervitis causes your gums to bleed and it may also be possible you have an abscessed tooth.

I think your gums are messed up. Or maybe you are just sensitive. Anyways, you know when you're teeth are coming cuz u get these weird pains at the sides and back of your jaw. Also, if you run your tongue on the back of your teeth, you might be able to feel a bit of the tooth sticking out.
It will hurt a lot when the wisdom took grows at a weird angle, and pushes against the other teeth (disrupting them)... in that case (my case) you'd have to get them removed.

If you are between 16-21 years old, it's probably wisdom teeth. They come in later and they can really be uncomfortable. If you're worried, go see your dentist. In the meantime, take some anti-inflammatory (aspirin or ibuprophen with food) and reduce the pain and swelling. Just think how "smart" you'll be when they all come in! Godloveya.
