You have to either have endodontic therapy (Root canal therapy) or a tooth extraction for a tooth with severe inflammation. Antibiotics and a narcotic pain reliever would do wonders to make it tolerable for a very short time but at the point inflammation occurs it ideally means pupal damage has occurred. Sometimes the pulp can repair itself if this was possibly caused by routine dental work recently. Although this is a somewhat rare depending on a multitude of variables. So, the answer is to see a dental professional to see what the actual problem is.

Go to the dentist! You can not run around with a infection in your tooth. If you think you have a infection in your tooth that is enough reson to go to the dentist.

Yes, teeth have nerve endings that are located in the pulp of the tooth. When the protective enamel layer is worn down or damaged, these nerve endings can be exposed to external stimuli such as hot or cold temperatures, causing tooth sensitivity.
