Swelling in Inner cheek
I had a chilled beer in winters and from the next day my left lower inner cheek is swollen and because of the swelling it gets between my teeth (I know it is quite silly to explain it that way, but it hurts). It has been 3 days now. If I put something hot or "sonth" (I don't know what you call it in English) toothes for a few minutes and then goes back .
Please suggest urgently.

Your explanation is inadequate. There are less chances of such lesion after drinking beer that too immediately. Anyway you may consult an Oral Medicine expert or Practo consult.

There may be some cavity in some tooth on that side. So you better consult some near by dentist as early as possible. Till then you can do mild hot salt water gargle as home remedy.
