Severe pain after tooth extraction

I recently had a wisdom tooth pulled and now I'm in agony! I can barely function!
Is there anything I can do to relieve the pain and avoid missing work?

You may need to go back to your dentist to get it checked out.  Are you taking pain medications and following your doctor's home care instructions?
