What does it feel like when wisdom teeth come in?

Hello,
the past few weeks I’ve noticed behind my back tooth on the left a feeling like an ulcer almost, not very painful but I noticed a feeling like a tooth coming through the hole, I also get abit of a pressure feeling in my jaw but I do have TMJ so I put it down to that. I’m 35 so is it abit late for wisdom teeth? As I’m wondering if that’s what it is 🥴 has anyone else had them come in late and is this what it feels like?

Mine came through in my 20s, and I had a general ache in all four locations.

At my regular 6 monthly checkup, my dentist told me they weren't coming through straight and would need to be removed.

Only two of mine have come through, both upper ones. The main thing I noticed prior to them erupting that my cheek bones aching and not long after they came through. They both came through in my 20s.

I'm in my 50s now and have been told it's not out of the question that the lower ones will come through at some point (they show under gum on an xray).
