Brief Answer:
Seems like sharp pointed areas on the denture or a bony spicule.

Detailed Answer:
Hi...
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns...

As per your complain there is a possibility that you have some pointed and sharp elevations over the tissue surface of the lower denture on the painful side and as it would be rubbing over the gums while you wear denture it would be causing injury to the gums leading to inflammation and pain.
There can also be any sharp bony elevation known as Bony Spicule which can be formed post extraction due to irregular and sharp inter dental bone left untrimmed at the time of extraction and if it rubs against denture it can cause pain..

Kindly answer the following questions so that I can guide you better..
1.When you started having pain did you wear your denture during that time and you stopped wearing the denture due to pain?
2.Are the gums o the area of pain swollen and red?
3.Just move your finger over the inner surface of the denture and do you feel any sharp areas?
4.Touch the gums in the painful areas and do you feel any sharp or elevated areas like any elevated nodule?

Kindly answer the following questions so that I can guide you better towards treatment..

Wishing you a good health.

Thanks and regards.

Brief Answer:
May be some remaining root piece..

Detailed Answer:
Hi..
Welcome Again..

As per your reply there may a small piece of root remaining that has been broken and left out in the place and has been flaring up now and this can happen even after 2 years also..
But as it is just 2 days may be some hard food had caused injury to gums in that area and inflammation of gums is causing pain..
As of now you can do warm saline gargles, apply a numbing gel containing Lignocaine over the painful area, you can take anti-inflammatory painkillers like Ibuprofen and suck on ice for relief..
Avoid hot,spicy and hard foods to prevent further irritation..

In case if there is no relief even after one week you can consult your dentist and get an IOPAR (x-ray) done to rule out what exactly is causing pain..

Any further questions are welcome..

Wishing you a good health..

Thanks and regards.
