Suggest Treatment For Gum Pain After Getting Tooth Filling

Hi I have been to the dentist recently regarding my toothache. Which resulted in me getting 2 fillings. But neither filling is where the pain is. It's coming from my gum. Which appears to be cut. I've been using corsodyl, which usually works as I've had this pain before. But now it is not working. The pain is when I lie down and mostly at night. I've also been taking ibuprofen. I'm in agony.

Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The pain you are describing looks like pulpitis. Usually in pulpitis, there will be pain in the tooth and surrounding area. Nothing to be panic, consult a endodontist and get the tooth restored with root canal treatment. Mean while a you can take an analgesic like diclofenac.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
