Based on the picture that you have posted, this seems to be a case of cheek biting..... if it is chronic and recurs frequently, you need to get your dentition evaluated by a dentist so that any correction if required can be planned..... you can apply anaesthetic gel like dologel CT for symptomatic relief..... Regards.....
