Your symptoms: Your symptoms should be evaluated with a one on one clinical exam and x-rays by your own dentist. While at least some of your symptoms might be related to a problem with a wisdom tooth there are lot's of other possibilities both dental and medical in origin. It would be a disservice to you to try to render a diagnosis over the internet, sight unseen.
