Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The pain in the extracted site could be because of the inflammatory response or it can be secondary to bone cutting. Nothing to worry, it cannot be dry socket. Dry socket occurs within 3 days after extraction. Complete the course of antibiotics and analgesics and maintain oral hygiene, do saline gargling. If they have placed sutures, till you get the sutures removed, you will have little pain.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
