Is it okay to eat curry after tooth extraction?

NO: An extraction is a would in the mouth. Would you cut your hand and put salt in the wound? No same thing. Nothing too spicy, too hot, too grainy.

Mild curry: Is ok. If too spicy, might be uncomfortable even if you're normally used to it because of the healing socket.
