Please visit a dentist and get an X ray done to find out the position of the tooth in your oral cavity. If it's an impacted tooth that means if it's inside the jaw and doesn't have enough space to erupt it's advisable to extract it but in other cases it can be saved and can be relieved you of pain .
Pls visit a dentist ASAP and stop popping painkillers
Next Steps
Till then rinse yiur mouth with warm saline water and keep that area clean.

Hi sir...
wisdom teeth is one that fails to erupt in its normal position in the given period of time...
Consequence of wisdom teeth:
**soreness of jaw
**Difficulty in opening the mouth
**pericoronitis(inflammation of gums which cause bad breathe)
**crowding of adjacent teeth
**Erosion of teeth cause cavitation of adjacent teeth
**cyst formation
It requires surgical removal of wisdom teeth followed by analgesics and antibiotics
Next Steps
kindly visit dentist for furthur consultation and managemement
