Swollen gums could be due to infection of the gums. Or a Periapical infection due to tooth decay.
If there is infection and a sinus tract is formed, you’ll not have pain. But infection will still be there.
The image attached is not that clear.
A proper clinical assessment is needed to evaluate any caries and need to rule out abscess.
Next Steps
Consult a dentist.
