What do I do with extreme tooth pain after wisdom tooth extraction?

I got 2 wisdom teeth pulled this morning, and the pain is extreme. 2 Hydrocodone 7.5mg did nothing at all (and I usually don't need a lot of medicine for things to work). I literally can't even open my mouth, talking and eating is definitely out of the question. The pain is about 5x worse than when my appendix got removed, It's a severe dull throbbing pain. I don't know if I can go to the ER because I can't even talk. Saliva fills my entire mouth within 10 seconds also, so I have to release that several times every minute so I think i'm getting dehydrated but I can't even drink anything. What should I do? If I go to the ER and can't even talk what will happen?

Update:

And still bleeding 9 hours later
