This seems to be chronic infection which has become active again.
Consult a dentist immediately to get it treated to avoid further spread of infection

Hi..Based on the history it seems he has already developed tooth infection. Visit pediatric dentist soon. He needs pulpectomy for that particular milk tooth.

Visit a qualified dental surgeon at the earliest. He will examine your child clinically, take radiographs if required and suggest treatment. Milk teeth are precious for your child. Save them at any cost.
