"3-Day Rule": Impossible to tell without eval. See the dentist for evaluation. As a general rule: you should seek professional help for any unusual dental or medical issue that lasts more than three days or re-occurs more than three times over separate occasions. More than 3 days? It may be bigger than you think.

Overdue: You are overdue to have your symptoms evaluated. It's not going away by itself. Needs to be examined, possible lab tests, possible imaging. See your Dentist now. Concerned about persistence of symptoms without abatement. Please go now.
