Assalam o alaikum! You need to see a dentist. It can be a sign of gingivitis (gingival inflammation), ginigival abcess etc. So you need to see a dentist so that they can either do a scaling or provide other treatment based on indications through examination.

without examination from a dentist, it's risky to wait for pain to elicit.

Dentist in Karachi - Dr. Maha Aslam

assalamualaikum. firstly it is need to examine oral cavity. it might be gingivitis i. e inflammation and its major sign is bleeding from gums while eating or brushing. other gingival problems can be there too. it can be treated with scaling, maybe after that gums can heal on its own. for now u can use enziclor mouth wash twice daily and brushing and maintain ur hygiene. take Panadol as a pain killer. as well have soft diet till then. hope this helps. May Allah give u shifa ameen

Dentist in Islamabad - Dr. Safi Ullah Khan

It might settle down on its own but it could be some other issue. If you can’t access a dentist right away, please follow the following instructions. Do lukewarm saline rinses twice a day. Don’t brush vigorously and observe for 2 days . If continues you may have to visit a dentist for a checkup and maybe scaling.

Its always best to do preventive salt water rinses, take an nsaid in the meanwhile and try to get it checked up to see if it can resolve on its own. Doctors can understand better and will not do a treatment where body will heal naturally

Asa. gum swlelling usually occurs because of gum problems which may simply resolve after getting your teeth scaling done but in your case the hum swelling in the area you have mentioned may be because of your wisdom tooth. if your wisdom tooth is erupting (which usually erupts between 18 to 25 years) then it's very common to have inflamed gum associated with it. at times it resolves as the tooth erupts completely and at times it keeps on bothering you if the tooth doesn't have sufficient space of eruption.
in both cases I would suggest you to see a dentist who can have a detailed clinical and radiographic examination for proper diagnosis of your problem and then mat suggest proper treatment.
