What Could Pain On Left Side Of Upper Jaw Mean?

I have been noticing a bit of pain on the left side of my upper jaw near where my molars should be. I am not sure if I am experiencing the molars beginning to grow into my gums or if this is actually a gum disease. Upon touch the area feels very soft and the gums are not smooth. It feels as if it is swollen and there is some tearing. Could you please explain what might be the problem?

Hi
Welcome to healhcaremagic
After going through your query I concluded that you may be having gum disease as gum is very smooth and irregular. However you can consult dental surgeon for it. Till then you can take analgesic such as ibuprofen for pain relief. Vitamin B and C is helpful in recovery. You can discuss with your Doctor about it. If you have any clarification then please don't hesitate to write to us. I will be happy to help you.
