Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of severe pain after tooth removal which is not a very uncommon occurence. It could be due to presence of infection in stitches as well.
Need not to worry. I would suggest you to visit oral surgeon once and get complete examination done and start treatment accordingly. Apply cold compresses on area. Suck on ice pops. Maintain hygiene. You should get complete examination of upper quadrant done as well and get X-ray done. It could be possible there is presence of caries in that region and sensitivity is due to that. You should get complete scaling and root planing done quadrant wise.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
