Wisdom teeth pain
The gums at the rear of my lower 2nd molars have been detached from the teeth, for the upcoming 3rd molar I think, which is giving me a good amount of pain, especially while eating and drinking.
1.After how many days of pain should I consult a dentist?
2.What can I do to reduce the pain?

You should consult a dentist immediately because there is no logical reasoning behind bearing the pain. Extraction of the offending tooth is the answer to your query, and this treatment should not be delayed further.
Medications can provide temporary San dramatic relief but only objective treatment as described can provide permanent solution. OPG x ray will be required to assess the condition of the tooth so that the extraction can be planned accordingly.
