Question

I've got some swelling in my inner cheek, right near the last teeth on the lower jaw on the right side, and it's making me really uncomfortable. Should I be worried about this? What could be causing it, and how can I get some relief?

You may be experiencing swelling due to an infection in your mouth. I recommend taking an over-the-counter pain reliever like ibuprofen to help with the discomfort and inflammation. Additionally, you can rinse your mouth with warm salt water to reduce swelling. If the swelling persists or worsens, please consult with a dentist for further evaluation and treatment.
