Eruption cyst : You may have pericornitis (painful eruption) or an eruption cyst. See your dentist because they can prescribe antibiotics if needed and/or extract the tooth if it is a wisdom tooth and there is not enough room to grow.

See a dentist: It sounds like you have a tooth growing and not completely out. Sometimes food can get trapped between your tooth and your gum. This can make it hard to chew and hurt. See a dentist to evaluate the area and recommend a treatment.
