The swelling can be due to an injury to your gums while eating or because of wisdom tooth eruption or due to a decayed tooth etc. Clinical examination by a dentist is necessary for proper diagnosis. Meanwhile you can do warm saline rinses 2 to 3 times a day for some relief.

You should get an opg done. This will help evaluate the amount of decay, the position of your tooth roots as well as proximity of the roots to the underlying nerve. Then the decision can be taken whether to get it removed or not. Kindly consult an oral and maxillofacial surgeon for the same.

Hi lybrate-user, abscess is a fluctuating pus filled infected swelling kind of thing. In that case it would be painful, even you may have a fever. Without any image or without examining it is hard to tell what actually is bothering you. But as it is persisting for more than one month, I would highly recommend you to consult a doctor nearby, oral surgeon preferably. Until then, maintain oral hygiene by avoiding any irritant like tobacco, use mouthwash regularly.
