Hi,
Please take an x-ray OPG to get a better idea about the position of the wisdom tooth. From the x-ray picture shared, you have an impacted wisdom tooth. The best treatment option is removal of the wisdom tooth. Consciously avoid biting your cheek as that will lead to a habitual bite and more issues later.
