Hello,
The symptoms seem to be related to a cold sore.
I suggest to use anti inflammatory medications such as Ibuprofen to relieve the pain.
I also suggest using cold compresses to relieve the symptoms.
Avoid food that can trigger the symptoms.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
