Infection: By the end of the second day you should be feeling better, not worse. And odor is sign of problem. You may have a "dry socket" where the clot has washed ou5 and oral bacteria is now infecting exposed bone. Please return to the Dentist or Oral Surgeon that treated you for reevaluating and treatment.
