If it is due to cavity or not,it can be clear if you attach a picture of the area.
Keep the area clean, rinse after every meal.
If pain is more, take a tab ketorol DT when pain is present.
Next Steps
get a consult with pictures so that definitive advice can be given.
Health Tips
do warm saline rinses 3 times daily.
