What Causes Pain/inflammation In Lower Right Corner Of Mouth?

I've got pain and inflammation in the lower right corner of my mouth. It is very painful and hurts when touched. When I yawn I get a slight earache while my mouth is open. I've tried a lot to ease the pain but nothing has worked. Could this be my wisdom tooth?

thanks for your query, i have gone through your query. the pain in the corner of the mouth could be because of the infected wisdom tooth or the gums causing pericoronal abscess or pericoronitis. consult a oral physician and get a radiograph done and if sufficient space is not there for the tooth to erupt then it has to go for extraction, you need to take a couse of antibiotics. do saline gargling. i hope my answer will help you. take care.
