It might be an abscess formed due to infection in the tooth . The permanent tooth for the fractured tooth comes around 7 year of age so there's a good span of time left , please visit a pedodontist for the management of this tooth and associated infection.
Next Steps
visit a pedodontist
Health Tips

I hope you are taking the medications on the prescription of doctor. A visit to a pedodontist would be the most prudent step at this point. Regards
