You have a localised gum swelling around the wisdom tooth that has partially erupted. You can apply dologel CT for temporary pain relief until you consult a dentist. Meanwhile do warm salt water gargles and keep the area clean to prevent food particles from entering that area and leading to an infection.
Next Steps
Consult a dentist

You have an impacted wisdom tooth as it is not erupted properly. Consult a dentist and get an X-ray done. The permanent solution is to get it removed.

The wisdom tooth is partly impacted inside the tissue and bone . Food impaction over that region makes more painful and inflamed . Best solution is to remove it as soon as possible . Take salt water gargle ,its a natural antiseptic. Apply pain out gel .
