There seems to be an impacted third molar/wisdom tooth in that area.
I would advice rinses with lukewarm water and salt,
Apply mucopain gel in that region half an hour before eating your meals , gently massage it with clean fingers and get an OPG (full mouth xray) done to see the position of your third molar.
Then visit a dentist and get it extracted
