What Causes Extra Sensitivity On The Gum Line?

I just had a gingivectomy done a week ago. My mouth is all healed, but there is one spot on my gum line that is just extra sensitive. It I touch it, it hurts. If i drink or eat anything and it hits this certain spot it hurts as well. Do you know what the cause could be?
