Probably: You have an infection in your jaw that is most likely spreading between the muscle layers down the side of your throat. It is imperative that you immediately seek medical care, if not from a dentist, at least an urgent care center or ER. An antibiotic will help control the infection for a very short while until you can be seen by a dentist. Please go now, throat swelling can result in asphyxiation
