Wow: I've never encountered someone who actually extracted their own wisdom tooth... I sometimes have difficulty getting the job done, and here you go and do it without any experience whatsoever! That being said, see a dentist or oral surgeon to follow up on your post op complications.

Now you know: Now you know why we say Dentistry is not a DIY project. Treating yourself can do more harm than good. Before you make a bad situation worse see an Oral Surgeon.
