Hello
The picture that you have uploaded clearly indicates that your wisdom tooth is erupting. It is half inside the bone and half outside that's the reason that the gums near it are swollen and you're feeling discomfort in that area. Undoubtedly doing warm saline rinses is going to help you a bit but the problem can arise again and again due to food lodgement. The permanent solution for it would be the removal of wisdom tooth. You need to consult an oral and maxillofacial surgeon for the same.
