My gums around my upper right molar have been swollen could it be an infection in my gums

Q. My gums around my upper right molar tooth have been swollen for a while, but the area is firm. They become more swollen when I do not get much sleep, but I noticed today that the size difference between my right and left is significant. The area is a lot larger. I’ve already gotten my wisdom teeth taken out. Could it be an infection in my gums or another molar tooth growing out?

A. Its likely to be an infection, get your dentist to check it to see what it is

This same thing is happening to me right now. How long could this possibly last? and what infection could it be?
