What Causes Swelling In Cheek Near The Jawline After Eating At The Restaurant?
I went out to eat and all of a sudden something started to irritate the inner lining of my mouth. It was really a strange sensation. When I got home about half an hour ago, my right cheek near my jawline was and remains quite swollen; it almost looks like mumps. At the restaurant, they served peanuts and blue cheese. I have never before had a reaction.

Read your query as you have swelling in cheek near jawline and swollen gums this can be due to stomatitis or thermal burn . For this I will suggest you to consult oral surgeon for examination of oral cavity and get it evaluated . Inmeantime you can apply ointment on gums like stolin gum pain or Mugel gel on gums .
Hope this will help you .
