Thanks for using Health Care Magic.

Read your query.

Yes , the pain in the wisdom tooth can radiate to the head and jaw region . Pain while lying down suggests infection in the tooth. Abscess in that tooth will be the most probable cause.

For pain combiflam can be continued on full stomach. Antibiotics like amoxicillin wi be required on prescription.

Consult your oral surgeon and get a radiograph done , following which you can get the tooth removed .

Do salt water gargling .

Hope this was useful.
Thanks and regards.
