Hello, Welcome Thanks for consulting HCM,
You have mentioned that you have undergone extraction of wisdom tooth yesterday you are taking antibiotics and if you are taking any other Analgesic (pain killer) then it is okay dont take Ibuprofen and if you are not taking any Analgesic tablet you can take Ibuprofen , Ibuprofen is also a good analgesic it also reduces pain , do warm saline gargle also 2-3times a day.
Hope this will help you.
