Hello, thank you for consulting with healthcaremagic.
This pain which you are mentioning can be because of two reasons
-first it can be possible that one of your teeth is infected in the same region and now the infection has spread to the apex
-second it can be possible that your gums might be infected.
To get it confirmed you have to visit a good dentist and get an x - ray of the region. As it will show the infection site.
Hope it will help you.
