If the wisdom tooth troubles you repeatedly, get it removed. As wisdom teeth are last to erupt in our mouth, some don't erupt completely and becomes source of food lodgement and get infected. Permanent solution will be tooth removal. Temporary solution will be medication and warm salt water gargles.
