Thanks for your query. I have gone through your query.
As far as the pain is concerned, it can be because of the gum infection that has resulted in bone loss(as you described as it is in OPG). Nothing to be panic, consult a oral physician and get it evaluated. For the severe pain, you can take ketorol tablets which will reduce the pain in 10minutes. Along with the analgesic, you need to take a course of antibiotics like amoxycillin and metronidazole combination(if you are not allergic) till you consult your oral physician. Once the diagnosis is confirmed, If it is a gum infection, it can be treated with scaling and root planing.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
