Ibuprofen with help with the pain and swelling as it is an anti-inflammatory. An ice pack will help with the swelling as well. Make sure to wrap the ice pack in a washcloth or something like it first, and then place it on your cheek. If you can't stand the coldness, then wet a washcloth with water, and place it in the freezer for a few minutes. This way it gets cold enough to help with the swelling, but not too cold to handle.
Hope this helps!

If it hurts, take an Aleve, and put an ice pack on it to bring the swelling down. It should be back to normal in a day or two.
