From what I could make out your lower right wisdom tooth seems to be decayed and broken on the back side. This tooth will be advised removal most likely. Seeing the current situation you are in
Tab clavum / Augmentin 625mg twice a day for 5 days is safe and if pain dosent subside on taking paracetamol 650mg..then visit your gynaecologist for a prescription of tab Tramadol which won't be available to you without a valid prescription
Next Steps
warm betadine gargles
visit a good oral surgeon in your area
