Suggest Remedy For Pain After Teeth Extraction

I had 2 of my wisdom teeth pulled out 5 days ago. I am a 40 yr old female. I had other extractions and root canals before, but nothing this painful. As the doctor injected my first shot of Novocaine, a nerve was hit and liquid flew out of my mouth and it hurt, badly! It has been days since the extraction, but the pain has yet to cease. I actually am having sensitivity to teeth adjacent, and my jaw cannot open up. Please advise!!! Thank you!
