Terrible pain help

Went to the dentist 4 weeks ago for a filling. And after having the procedure I've been in a lot of pain (was in no pain before this). First, the pain was in my teeth and now suffering really bad terrible headaches can't stress this enough (migraines).

I went back to the dentist, and she said I've got an infection (abscess) plus nerve dying in tooth and gave me antibiotics. Can anyone give me advice on why I'm still suffering from really bad headaches? I'm using a lot of paracetamol. Will root canal work/extraction solve the headache and pain issues?

Good day

Paracetamol usually does not work for tooth ache. You should consider taking anti-inflammatory meds. Once the root canal has been done, the pain and infection should clear up.
