Dear thanks for the question.
You need to visit surgeon only. If oral surgeon not accessible you can visit a general surgeon in your area or visit a multi purpose hospital. General surgeon is also equally qualified. You have to get this problem solved soon as delay will increase your expenses as well as become more complicated. Till than take pain killers, take care of hygiene.
I hope my reply will benefit you. Please write for follow up queries. I wish you rapid recovery. Kindly give a feedback. Thank you
