Hi..
I have gone through your query and can very well understand your concern.
As per your complain it is possible that the wisdom tooth is about to break through the gums and due to this there is soreness and pain in the gums in that area..
Other reason can be that a small portion of gums might have ruptured and there is food deposition between the gums and tooth leading to infection and inflammation and the condition is known as
Pericoronitis..
But if there are no signs of any erupting tooth the pain can be due
injury to the gums in that area by some hard foods..
You need to
consult a dentist and get a clinical evaluation done as a correct diagnosis and treatment can be done only after knowing the exact cause..
By the time you can take painkillers like
Advil and do warm saline gargles..
Wishing you a good health..
