Hi Gareth, I understand that your in severe pain but self medication without proper clinical examination of the condition by a dental surgeon could be improper. With the history you seem to be giving it could be related more to the tooth than the soft tissue. My kind advice to you will be to get yourself thoroughly examined by the dentist and get the underlying condition treated at the earliest. Take care.
