What Causes Swollen Gums And Toothache?

Hi I have a swollen gum with a sensitive tooth, the pain was very sore earlier today but stopped and is now just swollen and sensitive. What is worrying me is that I have now developed a red ring on the outside of my check under my eye near where the tooth is. What is this?

HI...

WELCOME TO HEALTH CARE MAGIC.

REPEATED IRRITATION TO GUMS BY TRAUMA OR CALCULUS OR FAULTY TOOTHBRUSH TEQUENIC CAN LEAD TO GUM SWELLING.
BY SCALING PROCEDURE CALCULUS OR PLAQUE AROUND TOOTH CAN REMOVE.
YOU HAVE SENSITIVITY PROBLEM SO TAKE DESENSITISE PASTE CONTAIN SODIUM FLUORIDE OR POTASIUM NITRITE.
CONSULT A DENTIST FOR ORAL CAVITY EXAMINATION.
SOME DRUGS SIDE EFFECT IS GUM SWELLING ALSO.
IF YOU ARE TAKING ANY ANTI HYPERTENTION OR ANTI EPILAPTIC DRUGS THAN MENTION IT.

I HOPE MY ANSWER IS HELPFUL TO YOU.
TAKE CARE .
THANK YOU.
I find this answer helpful
