Seems to be a problem of gum infection and tooth cavity both. You need to visit a dentist soon for xray and clinical checkup for a confirmed diagnosis. scaling is mandatory for gum problems , do get it done and if there's a cavity too, get root canal done. we are based in gurgaon sector 56, signature smiles implants and dental clinic.

Is the pain in your upper jaw, if yes then is it at the back end of your jaw..? This might also be a case of Wisdom Tooth eruption or decay of wisdom tooth due to food lodgement in that area as it becomes difficult to clean using a toothbrush due to its deep position usually covered by a flap of gingiva.

Next Steps

Don’t delay, immediately visit nearest dentist.
