Extreme dental pain
A couple of months ago a small piece of one of the backside tooth on the right broke automatically. Now for the past 1 week the leftover part is moving and paining a lot causing high inconvenience throughout the day. It aggravates while sleeping and becomes next to unbearable. I'm unable to chew anything from the right side of my mouth and there's slight sensitivity on that side.
Please suggest medication for pain relief

Based on the provided details, it appears that the remaining fragment of your tooth is mobile, which requires immediate attention.
I strongly recommend visiting your dentist as soon as possible to determine the best course of action. Delaying treatment may lead to further complications, such as infection and increased pain.
Additionally, your dentist will likely recommend an X-ray of the tooth to evaluate its condition and develop an appropriate treatment plan. Prompt action will help prevent further issues and ensure the best possible outcome.

Hey there! Really sorry to learn that your pain is excruciating. It has to be clinically evaluated and then, if required get your tooth extracted/ treated at the earliest. Dental pain has the tendency to aggravate in a supine posture hence the excruciating pain during sleep.
Medication can only be given after in clinic evaluation and/ or after your case history.
Next Steps
Suggested Clinical evaluation and medication.
Use of chlorhexidine mouthwash and mild clircular brushing with soft bristled brush (not more than 3 minutes), twice daily.
Get well soon.
Health Tips
Visit the dentist at the earliest.
Only eat from the opposite side of the affected region. Chewing nuts/ any hard substances must be halted temporarily.
Hope this helps!
