Is bloody drool normal after getting your wisdom teeth removed?!

Question: Is bloody drool normal after getting your wisdom teeth removed?

I got my wisdom teeth removed about 4 hours ago and ever since then a lot of spit has formed in my mouth. I've just been icing my cheeks and letting my drool slide down my mouth on a towel..but it seems likes lot of blood and drool? is this normal? I also spit once..but then i read not to spit so I didn't do it again..can I swallow this drool or just let it slowly go away?

Answers:

When I had all four wisdom teeth surgically removed they bled for hours and hours. I kept gauze on them. I also did what you said you do and drooled onto a towel. It is completely normal to have blooding drool at first. Mine was terrible. The reason you cannot spit is because you could cause dry socket. This hurts really bad though I never had it. So be careful when you are brushing. Let your spit kind of just fall into the sink. and no straws!

put some gauze in your mouth! they should have givin you some. but yes it is normal when i had a tooth pulled it bled for 4 hours! but then again i got a dry socket so i really don't know seems normall to me.
