A member asked:
My wisdom hole is brownish yellow...is it a blood clot or dry socket?....its been 6 days ...it doesnt hurt
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Brownish yellow: Sounds like normal healing. If no pain, swelling, bad smell, you should be OK. However, the Dentist or specialist Oral Surgeon that removed the tooth is responsible for your post-surgical care. If you are concerned, call him/her and discuss your concerns. You've already paid for this service.
