Answers:

It will most likely be sore for a few days, but it should feel better as time goes on. Can you take ibuprofen? That usually works a lot better for pain than Tylenol. You can also put a cold compress/ice on your jaw, over where the tooth was pulled.

Also, don't use Orajel. It's not meant for open wounds and you could get an infection.
