For immediate relief , get the gum over the teeth removed. If it comes back again, get the wisdom teeth removed. An x ray called OPG will be required for better diagnosis.

visit dentist.
search where the x ray will be done.

Hot water gargles with salt 3-4 times a day. Take an anti inflammatory like ibugesic plus for 2-3 days. If it does not resolve please consult a dentist and get an X-ray done
