gum infection or tooth infection, medication

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your query. I have gone through your query.
As far as the swelling in the gums is concerned it can be secondary to gum infection or tooth infection.
If I am your treating doctor, I would have suggested you to take a course of antibiotics like amoxicillin and metronidazole combination(if you are not allergic). Do saline gargling. Consult an oral physician and get it evaluated. You need to get a radiograph like orthopantomograph or Radiovisiography to confirm the diagnosis. once the diagnosis is confirmed we can treat accordingly.
I hope I have answered your query. If you have any queries reply me back. take care.
