Your question ?: Can't seem to find it in your post. If you are concerned about the erupting wisdom tooth, then you should make an appointment with your local dentist to evaluate it and see if it needs extraction.

See an OMS: I apologize if my previous answer to your questioin seemed short or vague. My point is that it sounds like your wisdom tooth is erupting through the gum tissue and possibly infected. Either way it is time to have it removed so you need to see an oral & maxillofacial surgeon (oms). Hope that helps.
