hello, you can do warm salt water rinses as a home remedy, but this will give only temporary relief from pain. you need to visit a dentist and get it checked. get an x-ray done. if there is a cavity, you need to get it filled. if there is infection to the root of the tooth, you need to get it treated. then get a crown placed over it.

First & foremost get a thorough dental examination from a good dentist & get the required treatment done. Your query depicts a tooth abscess which requires immediate treatment including x Ray's of involved teeth. Instead of spending time for online solutions & fixes, kindly seek professional help at earliest from some good practitioner. Good luck to you 👍

Hello Sir
Greetings of the day. Visit the dentist without any further delay. Get the required clinical examination and x-rays of the tooth involved. You might need RCT with the involved tooth. If the swelling does not involve the tooth you will be needing a professional cleaning to be done to reduce the inflammation of the gums.
Next Steps
Warm saline gargles several times a day can be done to relieve the pain temporarily
