Hi doctor,
My son is 17 months old. He has a swollen upper lip on the inside of his mouth. It is not pus filled, just swollen. Both cheeks are puffed up because of the swelling. The swelling started overnight. Also, he has a fever. One side of the molar came out. Is this because of teething or an allergic reaction?

Thank you doctor,
There are no breathing issues and no rashes too. He had nothing different, except a gulab jamun last night. He got his hands on my cigarettes the day before yesterday and bit into one, but we caught him immediately and washed his mouth out. This is the first time this has happened to him. Sorry doctor, it is difficult to get him open his mouth enough to get a picture.

Thank you doctor,
This morning I have noticed swelling on one side of his face and he is not in pain. Could this be because of a new molar? It looks as if one tooth started to pop out.
