Hello, Welcome Thanks for consulting HCM,
You have undergone extraction as u said that you have taken 5 days antibiotic course then how can you can that infection is still there, dont worry much about that , still if you feel that infection is there you can take Capsule amoxicillin 250 mg twice daily and Tablet metronidazole twice daily and Capsule vitamin B complex once daily for three days only , then if you feels you, still have any problem then consult your dental surgeon
Hope this will help you..
