Having Noticed A Feeling Of Stretching & Pulling After The Teeth Extraction Procedure

I had braces for a month now and recently had my teeth pulled out. I know this sounds like a job for the dentist, but it isn't my teeth. When I woke up, my lip felt like there was something in it. Whenever i stretch my lip it feels like something inside is pulling and stretching. What is it?
