Back side last tooth's gum is paining.
The top of the gum seems bit loose and turned yellowish. Pain a lot if touched. Also pain while eating.
I feel I have hurt the gum with pop corn few days back, will it get better on its own?
Picture attached. Please see the top of last tooth's gum

It might be trauma due to pop corn. But it should not be so much painful.
Also there is impacted wisdom tooth in that area.
Visit dentist for clinical examination and x ray.
