Going by the description that you have mentioned it seems that your wisdom tooth is erupting and has inflammation around it and this condition is called as pericoronitis. The symptoms around this tooth will keep on reappearing and the only permanent solution is extraction of the offending tooth. OPG x ray will be required to assess the condition of the tooth so that the extraction can be planned accordingly.
Any other reason for your symptoms can be evaluated only after a proper clinical check up.
