Although a rational diagnosis cannot be established without a proper clinical evaluation of the case, but the most common reason for these symptoms is any traumatic or thermal injury to the area. You can apply anaesthetic ointments containing lignocaine or benzocaine to the area for temporary symptomatic relief and this should subside within 7 to 10 days. If it doesn't, please visit a dentist so that the right objective treatment can be suggested.
