Hi! read your query.
This can be a infection in your gums behind the last tooth.You must be on antibiotics like Flagyl for the infection.You must get the xray of the tooth after infection subsides.It must be periodontally treated or extracted based on the xray.
Gargle warm salt water thrice daily.
Regards.
