Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The pain can be becaus eof infection from any root piece left out during previous extraction or infection from the neighboring tooth.
Consult a oral physician and get a radiograph done to rule out any root piece remaining in the extracted tooth site or infection in the nest tooth.
Mean while you can take a course of antibiotics like amoxicillin 500mg and metronidazole 400mg tid for 5 days (if you are not allergic).
If there is a root piece then get it removed or if there is infection in the next tooth get it treated with root canal treatment or extraction.
Do saline gargling. i hope my answer will help you, take care.

Hello,
Possibities include a bone or tooth remnant remaining from the extraction or an issue with the tooth next to the extraction site. As your gum shrinks with healing the edge if a tooth or root structure may be exposed. If this is root sensitivity it will react to irritants such as extreme temperature or an acidic diet. Use toothpaste for sensitive teeth and fluoride rinses for relief. If it is a cavity, it will increase in size and you risk an infection developing in the tooth. I suggest seeing your dentist. If you have not gad a recent dental cleaning, you may may gum inflammation or periodontal disease. Take an X-ray to get the correct diagnosis. Rinse the area well. Maintain proper daily dental hygiene. Take antiinflammitory medication such as Tylenol or Advil to reduce discomfort.
I hope my suggestions are useful and help give you some ideas. Wirh severe pain, please try to schedule a dental visit soon. Thank you for your inquiry.
