Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain it seems that there is formation of dental abscess leading to pain and pus drainage from the tooth..

In case if the swelling is not completely resolved even after taking medication, then it seems to be probably due to pus that is still present and not being drained off..

As you are already taking medications like antibiotics and painkillers you should continue with it and you should also start doing cool compresses over the swelling..
You should also add Serratiopeptidses in your medications..

When the swelling goes down considerably you can get root canal treatment done as Root Canal treatment will help in draining off the remaining pus and will help in complete resolution of swelling..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
