First of all,do some warm salt rinses 4 to 5 times daily,after that get a radiograph done and see a dentist in person asap.Extra precautions would be to eat a soft,non sharp and cold diet like khichdi till the time you can see a dentist.Buy a painkiller from local pharmacy shop and eat,donot brush the affected side.

Get a dental check up done to see if something is there. If there is something stuck in the gum between your teeth you can try removing it using a dental floss. Avoid toothpicks as they can injure the gums
