Thanks for using Health care Magic.

Read your query and you have not mentioned much details in it.

Clarifying on what you have said,it can be your tooth is infected and this is the reason for the pain and headache.

Advised to take a pain killer like ibuprofen (if u are not allergic to any),do saline garlgles.

Dont apply anything hot from outside to relieve the pain.

Visit your local dentist and get the tooth evaluatio,and start with prescribed antibiotic ,get the appropriate treatment done.

Hope this was beneficial for you.

Thanks and warm regards.
