Hello,
Erupting wisdom tooth creates pain. But we need a x ray to rule out whether tooth is erupting properly or not. Because if their is little or no space for erupting tooth then it may need to be extracted.
Next Steps
(-) Visit a dentist or video consult
(-) Can take painkiller but it will give you temporary relieve
(-) Warm saline water rinses two to three times a day
(-) Brush twice a day
(-) Apply ice pack from outside the effected area
Health Tips
X ray or OPG helps to diagnose properly. so visit or video consult a doctor

Hi there,
If it's a wisdom tooth pain, it will gradually reduce your mouth opening. You can have any food, but you should concern about the pain and source of origin of pain. Long standing wisdom tooth can lead to other problems too.
Next Steps
visit dental clinic, get your x ray done. Local anaesthetia will help you to open your mouth and get the disease diagnosed.
Health Tips
medicine will give you a transient releif, untill the source of infection is not treated. Better get it ruled out for wisdom tooth or any other tooth related problem.
