Please visit a nearby dentist. Get your filling removed and x-ray done. It is mainly due to chronic irreversible pulpitis in which root canal will be done followed by capping. Pain killers wont work this time and you will need antibiotics also. Pain will go after proper treatment. If not able to contact dentist, take tab. Novamox lb 500 capsule two times a day for 3 days and tab. Zerodol SP two times a day for three days. Pain and infection will subside for around 2-3 months but it will recurr if you dont get it treated.
