As per your complain any pain killer medicine (ketorol dt) you will take it will give you temporary relief say for 3-4 hrs or so depending on the severity of the infection. You have to visit to any dentist to have further clinical examination and investigation like x-ray and for proper and permanent treatment.
Next Steps
visit your near by dentist.

First thing I would suggest you not to take frequent medicines as it doesn't cure dental problems, secondly as ur pain is intermittent, high with swelling means u have a periapical abscess so I would recommend u to visit ur nearby dentist and get the X-ray done
Next Steps
Medicine is not the permanent treatment
Health Tips
U may need RCT

Pain n swelling in gums and tooth are indicating to some infection in the tooth gum bone area. Better get the treatment done by a nearby dentist. Visit as soon as possible so that you will be relieved of pain. Don’t try medication on your own as that will be a temporary relief.
