Suggest Remedy For A Swelling In The Gums

I get frequent sore throat and this develops into nasal discharge and blocked nose. This generally starts on my right side of the jaw, where I have impacted wisdom tooth. Often behind the tooth I get swelling. Could this be related to impacted wisdom tooth?
