thanks for your query, i have gone through your query, the pain could be not subsided because of the fractured tooth fragment mobility or root fracture. if i am your treating doctor i would have removed the broken iece of tooth if ot os present or else if complete tooth structure is there open the access cavity and drain the pus. then start with antibiotics. do saline gargling. treat the tooth with RCT if there is no root fracture. i hope my answer will help you. take care.
