You can give your kid a pain killer syrup...ibugesic junior or even crocin or p-250/500 syrup if you have at home. 5 ml will do. Also, the tooth must be a milk tooth molar...as children don't have premolars at this age.

Dear sir, first of all I would like to clear one point of yours here that is premolars are usually not seen in children aged 7. Pain is usually a sign of pulp irritation which is usually a sequence after decayed teeth
Next Steps
Visit a dentist as soon as possible
