Before you take any medication you must visit a dentist. Prescribing medicines without evaluating you thoroughly is not going to be of much use to you. Your problem may be due to a decayed tooth which has caused infection and accumulation of pus. If the concerned tooth is not treated on time the problem will only get worse.
Next Steps
Visit a dentist asap
