Tooth pain: If you are having dental pain, you should see your own dentist for an examination, x-rays and an evaluation. It is impossible to diagnose and treat you over the internet. We cannot determine whether or not you have an infection nor what treatment is recommended with this type of internet forum.

Infection: Considerably greater chance your pain is caused by infection, not Ludwig's Angina, which is actually quite rare. If it is caused by infection, wait a day or two and inflammation will probably be quite obvious. Please see your Dentist before the infection spreads.
