Pain in the gums after orthodontic treatment?

I recently had my braces removed and put on retainers. The day i removed the braces and put the retainers, everything was perfect but from the 3rd day onwards i am feeling pain in the lower gums under two teeth. This pain is now still there even after 1 month of retainer wear. Does anyone know the cause and remedy for this?My orthodontist is clueless.

On 5th september I did my tooth canal treatment. Since then my tooth and whole mouth is paining and this pain reaches till my ears. On 9th september I went to my doctor and she just did some leveling of tooth and gave me antibiotic called moxyvit forte 500 , till now I have taken 6 tablets plus optalgin which is pain killer…..today is 11th september, I got up with fever….I took some common tablet for fever and came to work.
How long this is going to continue….please tell me is this normal or something is wrong with my treatment. Thanks for your help
I thank you all for your quick responses, I am on my way to the dentist ,as you all said not to delay anymore……thanks again..

I had root canal treatment on a lower middle molar three days ago. I still have a very nervy pain (drinking hot or cold liquid especially) and am disappointed as previous root canals left me with total relief the next day – relief from the previous tooth ache. My dentist told me it will settle within a week or so and has given me an antibiotic prescription to clear up any infection. I have an appointment in 3 weeks for another half hour surgery to finalise the procedure. Any advice please?
