Your symptoms are suggestive of a local infection which could likely be a tooth infection. I would advise you to visit the dentist so that you can be examined and be treated as per the underlying cause. These following steps may help:
- Apply ice over the area that is swelling.
- Do salt water gargle with lukewarm water thrice a day.
- Brush your teeth regularly, preferably twice a day.
- If you have habits of chewing betel leaves, tobacco, etc kindly stop
If the condition persists or worsens visit the dentist at the earliest
