Hi. Thanks for the query. Well generalized pain in gums can be most probably due to infection in gums but in case if the pain is specified to upper gums then it can also be related to sinus infection or sinusitis. So taking painkillers alone will temporarily mask the pain but can sprout up once the effect of the painki...

**1. At your age [80], likely cause of red blisters could be bulbous phemphigoid [BP] which mainly affects people aged over 70, and since condition is autoimmune thus treatment/management is required to control symptom.2. Colitis is one triggering factor for BP [which is mentioned in your history]3. Thus do not continu...
