Is the discharge with a taste from the gum overlying an impacted wisdom tooth pure (tahir)?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

Much blood discharged from the gums is excused due to hardship, so washing it is not required. If it mixes with saliva or the water used for rinsing the mouth, it is excused. However, if it is little and not continuous, it must be expelled and swallowing it is not permissible.
