It sounds like you may have pericoronitis, where the tissue around your wisdom tooth is irritated or infected. You should make a visit to your dentist, who may perform an operculectomy to remove the tissue, or he may recommend extraction of the wisdom tooth if it can only partially erupt. If you do nothing, the irritation and swelling will subside on its own over time, but it's likely to return. Better to get it taken care of rather than ignore it.
It's normal and very uncomfortable.
A new tooth is trying to shove it's way into an already full space.
You may need to have the tooth extracted - this will ease your pain and also prevent crowding and movement of your existing teeth.
Obviously, it's very painful or you wouldn't be reaching out for information - perhaps a visit to the dentist is in order.
Good luck.
No its normal just give it some time!
if problem persist for 15days consult a dentist, i think u have to go though small surgery.
