We can understand ur problem,this condition is called pericoronitis characterized by inflammation of the operculum(flap of gum). Get a Operculectomy done,which is the surgical procedure of removing the operculum, or the flap of gum that partially covers a tooth.it is a simple 15 min procedure done under local anesthesia .no rest is required as such u will be back to ur routine.
Consult a dentist at the earliest.
