Tooth pulled 1 week ago. not infected before pulling. no stitches. no antibiotics. should i worry about post infection now since i wasnt given meds?

Don't worry: Keep area clean. You should be OK. Discuss replacing the tooth with implant/crown with your Dentist before other teeth start to tip/drift.
