HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
The pain should start to decrease after a few days, normally it should be decreasing after 3 to 4 days.
If it is not resolving then you may need to be reviewed by your dentist. You may need an alternative antibiotic and other additional treatment.
I hope this helps
