Left side wisdom teeth problem...
I'm getting pain often, flush is swelling at that part, can't even open ma mouth properly nor I can take food...
That is normal when a third molar is erupting, especially at your age. You need to get an opg x ray and subsequently plan for the removal of the tooth in question. The reduced mouth opening is due to the irritation of the muscles in that area.
Next Steps
Warm Saline rinses
Consult a dentist in your area
Don't take antibiotics without a professional opinion in person
Health Tips
Opg is a must in order to determine the complexity of extraction
