Your wisdom tooth is causing the problem. Visit a maxillofacial surgeon for your treatment. Meanwhile rinse your mouth using salt and lukewarm water 3 to 4 times a day. This will help you a bit.

Visit dentist and get wisdom tooth removed.
Lower wisdom teeth are damaging 2nd molars as well on both sides. Nerve proximity is also seen on both sides. Get a 3D scan done for the same.
Next Steps
Visit MDS oral and maxillofacial surgeon so the nerve damage can be prevented as nerve can be close to tooth in your case.
