I just had my tooth pulled on Monday, i feel like it was healing pretty well but!


Question:

I just had my tooth pulled on Monday, i feel like it was healing pretty well but i woke up this morning and?

I woke up this morning and my face was swollen all on that side! I dont think it has been swollen because I think i would have noticed, its tender on my lip and under my eye is a little puffy..

So basically is swollen on the rigt side from my eye to my nose.

Is it swollen because theres something wrong? Or because I just woke up? Please help im scared (and upset..i go on vacation today)

Dry socket? That would suck!I dont have much pain...Could it still be dry socket and not have pain?
Also I dont know if it has anything to do with it, but I talked a whole lot more yesterday than I did the days right after the tooth got pulled (family came over)

PS: it was a molar on the right side, on the TOP 2nd from the back


Answers:

It sounds like it may be a dry socket which can cause swelling and pain. The pain is herendous. So if your not feeling pain maybe its infected and not a dry socket.
