Read your query senstivity and pain in lower jaw can be due to your tooth is carious and shadow can be due to infection present at apical region dont be worried so much I will suggest you to consult oral surgeon and go for treatment . Inmeantime take proper course of antibiotic prescribed by your dentist .
Do warm saline rinses 2 to 3 times a day .
Hope this will help you .
