what can soothe the burning inside my mouth from it being swollen

Posted by HoneyB

I dont know if this has anything to do with my diabetes. But I am starting perimenapause. Each month is a new experience in something. this time, a tooth with no problems started hurting when I bite down, now the cheek is swollen and red. I cannot lay down on that side, Is there anything to soothe the constant burning pain?
