Hi,
From history it seems that you had an abscess formation after removal of teeth and now as one stitch is gone leading to pus drained out giving rise reducing swelling, pain etc.
Go for one antibiotic medicine course.
Do anti septic gargles daily.
Within few days wound will be healed up.
Ok and take care.
