Hello and welcome.
Thanks for sharing your concern.
According to the history posted here it appears that you have developed an infection.could be trismus post extraction.
please stop taking pain killers and revisit your dentist for follow up.This is common post extraction but it definitely requires attention.
Meanwhile do warm saline rinses and maintain very good oral hygiene.
Hope it helps.
Thanks.
Take care.
