It seems the cavity u got filled was little deep and the dentist might have given a temporary filling to be replaced after few days. Wait for 2 more days if it's not subsiding, then get an IOPA i.e x-ray of that tooth to know if d caries has gone further down to the pulp. If so u might need to get RCT done

Get an X-ray done. Symptoms suggest the tooth may be going for a root canal. Get the filling checked and use a sensitivity toothpaste for a few days

If there is still pain and you are relieved by cold water, it seems the pulp of your tooth is affected,
Next Steps
after an X ray of the tooth , you might need a root canal, if the roots are not decayed

Tooth needs treatment by a dentist. May need root canal treatment or removal of the tooth, to be decided by the dentist. So visit your dentist immediately
