Hi.
Read and understood that you have a severe and persistent pain without any other symptoms or signs as seen by your Primary Care Doctor.
Hence the pain may be due to Trigeminal Neuralgia / Impacted molar.
Consult an ENT for clinical evaluation and get started on appropriate medicines for the diagnosed pain.
If required He will send you to the Dentist or a Neurologist if required.
