Swollen Gum Just beside the wisdom teeth

2017-05-19 16:02:48
I have a swollen gum. It started 2 days ago and pain is still not going. I haven't eaten any hard foods since a week but the gum started to swallow. Swollen gum is just beside the wisdom teeth. Wisdom teeth is not paining, its only the gum that is in pain.
