Hello,

Thanks for consulting HCM

Read your query as you have infected wisdom tooth infection in tooth can be due to some reason like if tooth is carious or decayed tooth with Periapical pathology may be Periapical Abscess or due to Impacted or Partially erupted tooth with Pericoronal abscess . If you have infected tooth I will suggest you to consult dentist and go for its treatment Root canal treatment or Extraction of tooth.
Inmeantime you can do warm saline rinses , you can take Antibiotic like Ofloxacine by consulting with your doctor and Analgesic like Paracetamol or Diclomol if you are not allergic with vitamin B supplement .

Hope this will help you.
Wishing you good health

Regards ,
