Going by the description that you have mentioned it seems that both your wisdom tooth and the second molar are affected and both will require different treatments for their problems.
The wisdom tooth will require extraction to alleviate the symptoms permanently and the second molar which is decayed will require either a filling or a root canal treatment depending upon the current condition of the tooth determined by an x ray.
This condition has already been delayed for a long time and it would be recommended that for the treatment should not be delayed before the symptoms aggravate further.
Regards.
