It sounds like you might have involvement of nerve in your wisdom tooth. The other reason could be a gum infection around the wisdom tooth. If you cannot immediately see a dentist then I would recommend that you start a course of antibiotics to help settle the infection. As soon as you can visit a dentist
Next Steps
Suitable antibiotics can be decided upon after speaking with a dentist
Health Tips
Avoid extreme temperatures..very cold or very hot food and drinks.
Do not use hot towels or hot packs to relive pain. cold is fine

Can you share clinical photograph of the teeth ? for further diagnosis .
In the meantime you can take a simple Painkiller like paracetamol .
Also, from the given history you have pain while sleeping, so it's because of infection of the tooth due to caries & gum infection due to lack of hygiene in the wisdom tooth area causing spread to the the end of the root.
Next Steps
