Hello Pain and swelling are signs of infection. It usually shows only the x-ray but if it's not evident then there is chance of fracture of the tooth which is not evident on a 2 dimensional x-ray film. Clinical evaluation is reqd to  further comment on it.you can visit our clinic with the x-ray, in Kharadi for further diagnosis and treatment. Regards Dr.Bhawana Singh
