Yes wisdom tooth are painful. Actually they come by age 30 years but sometimes they due to insufficient space cannot come out like other tooth at same level. This creates the flap to grow out and due to food lodgement infection and inflammation of the flap occurs.
You can follow the medicinal course I will suggest you. Kindly msg and ask if required to you.
Next Steps
You get an OPG xray done so that either it us tiled or stuck in bone will be understood.
Health Tips
You can do betadine gargles twice daily taking 5ml -5ml.
