Is it normal for me to be having pain during/after tooth extraction?

No, yes: No, during the procedure as you will be numb and yes, after the procedure (generally mild to moderate) which is handled with an appropriate pain medication.

Modern Dentistry: In Modern Dentistry the pain during the extraction procedure is almost diminished, but post-operative tooth extraction pain still a problem. IV or oral sedation can be used for difficult surgical cases for patients with dental anxiety and for everyone who wants to feel more comfortable during the surgery. Pain after tooth extraction may be reduced with proper care.
