Talk to experienced dentist online and get your health questions answered in just 5 minutes.
A proper clinical evaluation will be required to arrive at the right diagnosis. Going by your description and keeping in mind your age it seems that an erupting wisdom tooth is the reason for your discomfort. It will require surgical extraction which can be done safely in the second trimester or even as an emergency procedure otherwise.
Please consult an oral surgeon for the same.
Regards.
