Hi good morning from your complaints it seems like your wisdom tooth/3rd molar might be erupting. sometimes its eruption causes extreme pain; difficulty in opening mouth and chewing and swelling of gums in that side. I suggest you take some painkiller and a use a good mouth was. if you still experience pain, visit your dentist. regards
