Viral?: Even if you were allergic to the plants, allergy usually causes itching and not hurting. Your problem is most likely viral but if the problem gets worse or is associated with a fever >102 degree F, see a doctor.

2 consultations: See a Dentist to evaluate your overall dental health. See an Allergist to manage you allergies. You need to see both as an Allergist doesn't treat mouths, and a Dentist doesn't treat allergies.
