  4. Swollen gum around one cavity tooth.

dentist-icon
Swollen gum around one cavity tooth.
The tooth is half broken, attached to gum which is weak at roots I guess and possibly the tooth infected by cavity or decay. The interior of the cavity has gone black. And the gum holding the tooth has swollen since 4 5 days. Also the half broken decayed teeth has got a minimal part which is weak enough and will break away from the parent tooth if pressure/force is applied.
