Probable cyst: If it is not red and just has clear fulid it is probably a benign cyst. It just needs to be drained and the base cauterized. Simple procedure.

Dental Abscess: It certainly needs to be evaluated. Why don't you give your dentist a call for an appointment? It isn't going to go away on its own, and when the unbearable pain begins, the end result will be the same: a visit to your dentist. But only after a lot of suffering. Make the call and feel better soon.

Could be: Could be abscessed tooth, ranula, gum infection, or one of many other problems. Your Dentist trained many years to be able to diagnose and treat your problem. Obviously your home remedy approach is not working. Call a Pro, call your Dentist now.
