I am in a lot of pain because of my wisdom tooth. Gums around the tooth are swollen and cut. Please advise some painkiller for temporary relief as I cannot go out now for a check up. The tooth is fully formed.

This could be because of food getting lodged in that area and causing inflammation . As wisdom tooth is the last tooth brushing in that area can be a challenge and hence this problem occurs. Kindly follow the following steps -
1. Warm water salt rinses, keep water in that area for 5
seconds and then spit it out .
2 . Take Tablet Enzoflam 3 times a day for 3 days after
meals.
3. Clean that area well . Get into the habit of brushing
twice once in the morning and once in the night .
4. whenever you feel uneasy in the gums ,floss that area
in between your teeth with a coated dental floss .
Any food stuck in between will be taken out and this
will give you relief.
Next Steps
