Thanks for using Chat Doctor. Read your query. The pain the tooth suggests an abscess in relation to the decayed tooth, the pain being radiated to the head and eye region. Since you already are taking antibiotics, complete relief will only be upon treatment of the tooth. I would advise yo to visit an emergency, so that they can plan out a treatment for which will they need a radiograph and root canal treatment to follow. DO salt water gargling. Avoid placing any hot bag externally. Amoxicillin thrice a day and broken whenever required may help the pain, but the treatment is to done at the earliest. Hope this was useful. Thanks and regards.
