Mild swelling
I have this swelling since today morning, I ate crunchy food yesterday some food got stuck in my wisdom tooth gap which was not fully developed. This happened to me long back in the same way, it was somewhere around 2019 december. It hurts to eat food on that side.

Partially erupted wisdom teeth can lead to inflammation of the gums leading to pain . In the long run the food lodgement can lead to dravy not only of that tooth but the one in front of it . To prevent damage infection and discomfort to the wisdom tooth and the tooth in front of it I would advise it's removal.

Wisdom teeth is not fully erupted so you need to go to dentist and take OPG and after evaluating conditions either you have to remove the wisdom tooth or you have to take medicines
