If you have severe pain after a filling .the first thing u must do is to Remove the Zinc Oxide Eugenol filling as soon as possible from The paining site.it will relieve you half the pain..now since u r having wisdom pain you need long acting antibiotics.
You can take Augmentin 625mg and along with Zerodol-SP(Serratiopeptidase works lot good during inflammation ) twice day for three days..
If pain stil persist u need to remove the tooth surgically getting help with ur local dentist.
Next Steps
take an X ray
Health Tips
Do mouth exercises opening and closing to prevent trismus (lock jaw).

Have antibiotics for at least 5 days. Pain will fully relieve only if the filling is removed .. so for now u don eat with that side have soft diet . Salt warm water gargle . Mouth wash plax u can use take 7 to 10 ml gargle for 4 min n rinse t off. Don eat r drink for half an hour after tat.
Once lockdown is finished u have to see dentist . U have to take x ray n rule out the status f tooth . If prognosis s good u can go for act n crown . Or else extraction and replacement
