Wisdom tooth: extraction is a surgical procedure and is not completely risk-free. Pain, bleeding, swelling and infection following surgery is usually at its worst 24 – 48 hours after surgery. After that it should subside more and more every day and after 7 days stop. Bleeding after 7 days is not normal. See your dentist or an oral surgeon for post-op appointment and treatment.

Post-surgery: Your dentist isi absolutely correct. This is a not uncommon post-surgical complication. It is readily treatable. Follow your Dentist's advice.
