Update Date: Source: Network

Long-term gingival bleeding may lead to anemia. If patients experience long-term gingival bleeding and do not pay attention to it, allowing it to progress, anemia may occur, and patients may experience symptoms such as dizziness, pale complexion, and poor appetite.

1. Dizziness: Long-term gingival bleeding may lead to anemia. If there is inflammation in the gingival area of the patient, and the oral cavity is not properly cleaned, the inflammation may stimulate the tiny blood vessels in the mouth, thinning the blood vessel walls, thereby aggravating gingival bleeding, and subsequently, the patient may experience symptoms of dizziness.

2. Pale complexion: Long-term gingival bleeding may lead to anemia. If the patient has long-term malnutrition, it may lead to malnutrition anemia, which manifests in the patient's complexion. Due to insufficient red blood cells, the patient's complexion may appear pale.

3. Poor appetite: Long-term gingival bleeding may lead to anemia. If the patient has long-term malnutrition, it may lead to insufficient intake of nutrients into the body, unable to meet the needs of the body, and symptoms of poor appetite may occur.

4. Others: If the patient has long-term gingival bleeding, it may also lead to the proliferation of bacteria in the mouth, damaging the gingival tissue and causing damage to the gingival tissue. If not paid attention to and allowed to progress, it may lead to more severe inflammation, stimulating the oral mucosa, gingival tissue, etc., which may lead to ulcers in the mucosa or gingiva, resulting in long-term gingival bleeding. If patients experience long-term gingival bleeding, it is recommended to seek medical attention promptly and use medications such as Yunnan Baiyao Capsules under the guidance of a doctor.

Pay attention to oral hygiene, rinse your mouth after meals, and avoid consuming hard, cold, hot, or acidic foods.
