Surgical Extraction: Any surgery takes a toll on your body, both physically and mentally. Were you put to sleep, too? That may be adding to your general fatigue. Get some rest and you should be fine.

It is normal: The fatigue you feel is normal and is your body's response to its adrenaline production during surgical procedure, caused by the stress. After the surgery, when the reason for the reaction has gone, it is normal to feel the way you do. Try to relax, drink plenty of water and get a good night's sleep will solve this problem.
