Hello Yikai,
You must have quite a high pain threshold considering you have already had wisdom tooth pain once! To answer your questions:
1. The white liquid is most likely pus - this is your body's way of trying to fight the bacteria causing the pain and infection. However, pus is also an indication that the infection is getting worse considering you have already had one completed course of antibiotics
2. How to stop the pain? More likely than not, you need to get this bottom left wisdom tooth taken out.
Wisdom teeth extractions always sound like a scary ordeal which many people are fearful of and understandably so. However, be reassured that you would not feel the pain during the process as adequate local anesthetic will be given and it is important that the area is numb enough before starting. This is to ensure your comfort. You would also be prescribed painkillers and a second round of antibiotics to ensure that there are no post extraction complications such as infection to the site.
Take heart in the fact that being 19yo, you are young and young patients always have a very quick recovery of a week though healing is subject to the individual so this varies from time to time.
My best advice to you would be to find a dentist you are comfortable with and get the wisdom tooth out. If it is a surgical procedure, it is medisave claimable and you can use your medisave or parent's or siblings medisave to pay for it, inclusive of consultation, wisdom tooth surgery, x ray and medication.
Hope this helps and all the best!
Regards,
Dr Beth
