Hello,

Paracetamol can be used for tooth pain and this can be combined with ibuprofen every 6 hours after food. You can also use cold compresses on your cheek, over the painful area (do not use ice directly on the skin, wrap cold items with a clean gauze before using it on your skin).

If you have swelling and fever, then antibiotics are needed and you need a visit with your doctor and also a prescription to access these.

I hope this answers your query and is helpful to you. Let me know if I may assist you further.
