neuralgia pain?

Question

i have a swelling in my gum,the doctor reckons its neuralgia.
i dont think it is neuralgia....i am certain it is pressing down on somewhere and effecting my eyesight,as my vision is very blurred...i have been given medication for neuralgia,but its not made any difference...any ideas what it could be.....

Answer 1

It may still be a form of neuralgia, but if you vision is very blurred, you need to go back to the doctor ASAP, as this could be an indication of something very serious. It may be that you are having a reaction to the medication. I have never heard of gum swelling causing blurry vision. I think both things may be the result of something else, perhaps an infection.
