Hi,

Thanks for aksing the query,

According to your clinical symptoms i suppose that you might have developed haematoma after injection or this could also be due to infection in the tooth.

Consult the treating Dentist for detailed clinical examination.
If it is due to improper injection it will subside after sometimes.
Take lukewarm saline rinses and antispetic mouthwash gargles, avoid alcohol, smoking, carbonated drinks as this will worsen the condition.
If it is related to tooth infection needs an x-ray and should be treated immediately for drainage of pus.

Hope you find this as helpful,

Regards.
