Yes, as long as it is a good antibacterial mouthwash. But get the gums checked out. Swelling is not good and can come from a variety of factors, some that are minor and temporary, some that are serious and need urgent attention. If the mouthwash hurts your gums when you use it, that is a sign that things are worse than anticipated and need treatment right away. In that case, stop using the mouthwash. See a dentist!
