It’s probably your wisdom tooth which is the cause of the problem. Diagnosis requires clinical examination and X-ray. If it’s an impacted wisdom tooth it may require removal. Your dentist will guide you after checking your X-ray.
Health Tips
Hot water gargles with salt will help. You can take a tablet of Combiflam or dolo 650 to relieve the pain. Consult a dentist asap
