Hello dear... Could you please describe the condition in more detail? I think it's too early to come to a conclusion. Since when do you have the pain?? A swelling since 1/2 weeks could be due to infection. Could you post a pic of the white patch of skin? Do you have cold or sore throat?? Please don't panic.
Next Steps
If possible visit a nearby dentist as soon as possible.
Health Tips
Do not apply anything to the swelling either internally or externally. Salt water gargles might help.
