My gums have been red and slightly swollen for over two months now.  I be using Listerine with gum care and that seemed to be helping me.  My gums still hurt but not all the time mostly when I brush or eat.   Since I do not have a dentist and no dental insurance using mouthwash is really the only affordable thing for me to do.

About a week ago I have notice that my breath is not so fresh like it use to be either.  One of my friend said my breath stunk.  I do not know why that would be since I am always using mouthwash.  Do you think it has anything to do with my  gums?  If so should I see a dentist?  If I have to see a dentist where can I find a really cheap one to look at my teeth?

Thanks
